Craft matters.
In small ways, like how a coffee is brewed.
And in not so small ways, like how your money is cared for.
Which is why for 160 years, UBS has elevated banking to a craft.
Tailoring unique strategies that combine human expertise with the latest technologies.
All happening across 24 time zones and 12 key financial hubs.
With you at the heart of it all.
UBS.
Banking is our craft.

but at international meetings like the East Asia Summit and other security dialogues with major global powers.
More on that in a moment.
