    UBS to sell IB arm?

    This could be interesting. Who would want to buy it?

    Or is this just the gossip machine going into overdrive?

    IIRC a split between the IB & wealth management has been on the cards for a while.

    Sas, don't you work there?

      I **thought** SG was docklands? CS are docklands, UBS are Liverpool Street.

            Interesting BP, has been mooted in the past. Where are you hearing that?

            I think if a hedge fund or two go down that is precisely what'll happen.

              Loads of utter bolox spouted by people that don't even know where these banks are based, let alone what they do.
              Every day someone starts a thread about this bank or the other one, yesterday it was Lehman Bros, now it's UBS turn. For your benefit, all they are doing is splitting Wealth management which is still profitable due to the present high level of risk and uncertainty from investment banking which is currently volatile and less profitable. Simple. Geddit?

                  The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                  But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                    I know you always read and follow my posts with great interest OS. I must admit however that my football knowledge (especially when it comes to teams outside London) is not as great as my business knowledge. Unlike some here, I'll be the first one to admit if I'm wrong.
