UBS Could Move out of Switzerland as Last-Resort Option -- Market Talk

Dow Jones03-25 19:32

1132 GMT - UBS Group has options at its disposal to mitigate a potential hit from new Swiss capital rules, but it probably sees moving out of its home country as a last resort, Bank of America's Antonio Reale and Rohan Datta say in a research note. The Swiss bank could explore selling assets, including its U.S. business, before moving its base overseas, according to Bank of America. "Re-domiciliation is not a straightforward process for banks, even less so for a Swiss wealth manager," the analysts say. "Switzerland's international ties and its history of neutrality have nurtured a unique environment." Shares rise 3.2%. (adria.calatayud@wsj.com)
