UBS's financial businesses are organized on a worldwide ­basis into three Business Groups and the Corporate Center.

The Business Groups Investment Bank and Global Asset Management constitute one segment each.The Corporate Center is now comprised of only one segment, after the sale of Private Banks & GAM on 2 December 2005. Prior to this, Corporate Center consisted of two segments, Corporate Functions and Private Banks & GAM. In addition, the Industrial Holdings segment holds all industrial operations controlled by the Group. In total, UBS now reports seven business segments.

Global Wealth Management & Business Banking

Global Wealth Management & Business Banking comprises three segments. Wealth Management International & Switzerland offers a comprehensive range of products and ­services individually tailored to affluent international and Swiss clients and operates from offices around the world. Wealth Management US is a US financial services firm providing ­sophisticated wealth management services to affluent US ­clients through a highly trained financial advisor network. Business Banking Switzerland provides individual and corporate clients in Switzerland with a complete portfolio of banking and securities services, focused on customer service ­excellence, profitability and growth, using a multi-channel distribution. The segments share technological and physical infrastructure, and have joint departments supporting major functions such as e-commerce, ­financial planning and wealth management, investment policy and strategy.

Global Asset Management

Investment Bank

The Investment Bank operates globally as a client-driven investment banking and securities firm providing innovative products, research, advice and complete access to the world's capital markets for intermediaries, governments, corporate and institutional clients and other parts of UBS.

Corporate Center

Corporate Center ensures that the Business Groups operate as a coherent and effective whole with a common set of values and principles in such areas as risk management and control, financial reporting, marketing and communications, funding, capital and balance sheet management, management of foreign currency earnings, information technology infrastructure and service centers. Private Banks & GAM, which was shown as a separate segment within Corporate Center in prior years, was sold on 2 December 2005 and is presented as discontinued operations.

The most significant business in this segment, Motor-Columbus, was sold on 23 March 2006 and is presented as discontinued operations. Additionally, certain ­private equity investments sold in 2006 and prior years are presented as discontinued operations.
