Beginning with a short outline of its historical roots, we try to shed light on UBS’ organizational culture. In this context it is cru- cial to understand that the values and norms within a company serve as guiding principles on a firm’s way to success. Thus, we analyse the values the organization promotes and discuss the implications this might have on its business. Many principles that are reflected in UBS’ organizational culture today have their roots in the bank’s constituting parts. Furthermore, the views on leadership and its emphasis on entrepreneurial thinking can only be fully understood if one takes into account the bank’s very diverse background which is a result of its history, its global business operations and its, in terms of culture and age, very heterogeneous work- force. Based on these facts and thoughts, we address the question of UBS’ strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and summarize the organization’s situation in a SWOT Analysis. In terms of strengths, it turns out that the organization comes up with an efficient human re- source management, which focuses on satisfied employees, who are recognized by UBS as a key factor in the company’s success.

  • Executive Summary - Informational
    Executive Summary - Informational TO: State Investment Board FROM: Dave Hunter DATE: August 16, 2019 SUBJECT: SIB Meeting Materials – August 23, 2019 The August SIB meeting will include a high-level performance update as of June 30, 2019, noting that we pushed our comprehensive annual investment performance review (with Callan) to September 27th due to very tight fiscal year end reporting time constraints. RIO’s CFO Connie Flanagan and Senior Financial Accountant Susan Walcker have been hounding our managers to finalize their June 30, 2019, results and valuations since July 1. Due to Connie’s and Susan’s relentless efforts, we effectively “closed” our books this morning. RIO will now seek to confirm and reconcile all investment valuations, cash flows and returns with our custodian (Northern Trust) and consultant (Callan) over the next week in advance of our auditors (Clifton Larson Allen) coming onsite the last week of August to complete their fiscal year end audit procedures. The August SIB meeting materials will address the following topics: 1. Asset and Performance Overview – Given the above noted time constraints, RIO will distribute this high level asset and performance update on or about August 22nd. 2. Public and Private Equity – Darren Schulz and Eric Chin will provide updates on the comprehensive review of our $6.4 billion public equity and $200 million private equity programs. Board Action will be requested to approve up to a $75 million commitment to Adams Street Partners 2019 Global Fund. RIO notes that Adams Street is our largest private equity manager and their Global Funds for 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 have performed well and ranked in the 1st or 2nd quartile by Callan as of March 31, 2019.
