Joint and several liability
In June 2015, the Personal & Corporate Banking and Wealth Management businesses booked in Switzerland were
transferred from UBS AG to UBS Switzerland AG through an asset transfer in accordance with the Swiss Merger
Act.
As of 30 June 2025, the joint and several liability of UBS Switzerland AG for contractual obligations of UBS AG
amounted to CHF 2.1bn, compared with CHF 2.4bn as of 31 December 2024.
Furthermore, as of 30 June 2025, UBS Switzerland AG was also jointly and severally liable for UBS AG’s liabilities of
CHF 530m (compared with CHF 538m as of 31 December 2024) under the international covered bond program,
for which UBS Switzerland AG has pledged assets with a carrying value of CHF 912m. UBS AG has provided cash
deposits to UBS Switzerland AG to fully collateralize this contingent liability.
As of 30 June 2025, the probability of cash outflows for these matters was assessed to be remote and, as a result,
no exposures were included in the table above.

Notes to the UBS Switzerland AG standalone interim financial information
Basis of accounting
The UBS Switzerland AG standalone interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with the interim
reporting requirements of Swiss GAAP (the FINMA Accounting Ordinance, FINMA Circular 2020/1 ”Accounting –
banks” and the Banking Ordinance).
The accounting policies are principally the same as for the consolidated financial statements of UBS Group AG
outlined in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements of UBS Group AG included in the UBS Group AG Annual
Report 2024, available under “Annual reporting” at
ubs.com/investors
. Major differences between Swiss GAAP
requirements and IFRS Accounting Standards are described in Note 33 to the consolidated financial statements of
UBS Group AG. Further information about the accounting policies applied for the standalone financial statements
of UBS Switzerland AG is provided in Note 2 to the UBS Switzerland AG standalone financial statements as of
31 December 2024, available under “Holding company and significant regulated subsidiaries and sub-groups” at
ubs.com/investors
.
In preparing the interim financial information for UBS Switzerland AG, the same accounting policies and methods
of computation have been applied as in the UBS Switzerland AG standalone financial statements as of and for the
year ended 31 December 2024.
UBS decided to consolidate the Wealth Management International business and the Global Financial Intermediaries
business booked in Switzerland in UBS AG to further optimize Group legal and operational structures and to address
regulatory considerations.
In the second quarter of 2025, the beneficial ownership of the respective heritage UBS businesses booked in UBS
Switzerland AG was transferred from UBS Switzerland AG to UBS AG, with effect from 1
January
2025. The transfer
was made in the form of a dividend in kind amounting to CHF 100m reflecting the net asset value of the business
in scope. UBS Switzerland AG will continue to manage the businesses under a contractual relationship with UBS
AG until the completion of legal transfer, which is expected to take place in 2028, and will continue to recognize
the underlying Wealth Management International and Global Financial Intermediaries assets and liabilities until
then. UBS AG’s share of the net profits of CHF
292m for the first half of 2025 is reflected in
Fee and commission
expense
.
This interim financial information is unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited 2024 standalone
financial statements of UBS Switzerland AG, available under “Holding company and significant regulated
subsidiaries and sub-groups” at
