UBS Wealth Management
Affluent investors need financial advice more than most.
Affluent investors often require advanced strategic guidance and advice in order to preserve their wealth as well as to see it continue to grow in value. Wealthy families may also require counsel when transferring money and assets to a spouse or across a generation.

"At UBS, our wealthy clients are as concerned about preserving their wealth as they are about seeing it increase," says Grant Rasmussen, President and CEO, UBS Bank (Canada) and Head of UBS Wealth Management in Canada.
In Canada, a wealth manager is usually asked to assist with the complexity of financial planning for individuals and families with large assets, which may be in multiple currencies and countries.
"The world of financial services is growing more complex," adds Rasmussen, "and while the level of sophistication of our clients continues to rise, we find they still look to UBS for ideas and solutions."
