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

with the audited
 
2024 standalone
financial
 
statements
 
of
 
UBS Switzerland
 
AG,
