Natixis Model Portfolios Added to UBS's Separately Managed NEWS RELEASE Natixis Model Portfolios Added to UBS’s Separately Managed Accounts Platform • Five Natixis Tactical Alpha Model Portfolios added to the program • Models designed to align with client risk tolerance, combining a strategic core allocation of traditional asset classes and an alternatives sleeve with a tactical overlay shifting the portfolios based on our macro views BOSTON, May 5, 2021 – Natixis Investment Managers (Natixis) today announced that five of its model portfolios, designed exclusively for clients of UBS Wealth Management USA (UBS), have been added to UBS’s ACCESS platform. Effective today, UBS’s US clients will have access to Natixis Tactical Alpha Model Portfolios through a pricing strategy that charges no additional investment manager fee and provides efficient access to a wide range of customizable investment offerings.1 Natixis Tactical Alpha Model Portfolios aim to provide significant alpha for investors through a three- pronged investment process focused on strategic portfolio design, an opportunistic overlay, and a rigorous quantitative and qualitative manager selection process. They are designed to be hybrid portfolios that align with client risk tolerance and combine active and passive strategies, strategic and tactical portfolio management and traditional and alternative asset classes. The strategic allocation for the models is comprised of high conviction, actively managed strategies and is rebalanced annually, while tactical views are applied mainly through passive strategies with a three to six month outlook. These model portfolios are powered by advanced analytics and supported by experienced consultants. “We continue to focus on providing the best possible advisory products and services to our clients from across the industry,” said David Blank, Head of UMA, SMA and Mutual Fund Wrap Advisory platforms, UBS Global Wealth Management. “These strategies will increase investor choice and provide greater differentiation to meet our clients’ unique needs, outcomes and investment objectives.” “We are pleased to be part of UBS’s new SMA offering and look forward to serving their clients with our innovative multi-asset portfolios,” said David Giunta, CEO of Natixis Investment Managers in the US. “Natixis’ unique multi-affiliate structure gives clients access to broad and diverse independent views. We are confident our model portfolio strategies can play an important role in helping clients meet their long-term financial goals.” Model portfolios are becoming increasingly popular with both financial advisors and clients. According to a survey published in February 2021 by Natixis Investment Managers, the growing adoption of model portfolios reflects a heightened focus on the overall client experience, providing an added layer of discipline and oversight to investment decision making, offering a more consistent investment process, and allowing advisors more time to address client needs. 1 Natixis Investment Managers Solutions is offered through Natixis Advisors, L.P., w hich is affiliated with Natixis Investment Managers.

  • UBS CEO Speaks at the Deutsche Bank Global Financial Services Conference
    UBS CEO speaks at the Deutsche Bank Global Financial Services Conference Q&A discussion 30 May 2018 Speakers: Sergio P. Ermotti, UBS Group AG CEO and Kinner Lakhani, Deutsche Bank head of European banks research Kinner Lakhani: Okay, good morning everyone! Welcome again to Deutsche Bank’s 8th Global Financial Services Conference. My name is Kinner Lakhani, I run the European banks research effort, and it is a great pleasure to have with us today UBS CEO Sergio Ermotti. So I thought maybe I will kick off with a few questions, and then hopefully the audience can come in and ask whatever questions they have. So we have 45 minutes this morning, so thanks again Sergio, for joining us. I guess thinking about strategic developments over the last 12 months, we have probably had the largest wealth management merger since UBS SBC, albeit an internal merger between your wealth management and wealth management Americas business. So I wonder if you could maybe spend a few minutes to map out what you see in the short term, maybe more in the medium term, as the opportunities for the group, perhaps both from a strategic perspective, from a cost perspective, and from a revenue perspective. Sergio P. Ermotti: Yes, actually if you think about that, the decision was almost a natural evolution of what happened in the last few years with the U.S. businesses and the international businesses, reshaping themselves into the new paradigm, and in the last two years they have been starting to converge in terms of how they look at services, how they look at products.
