Hear from our clients
The situation: Tiffany and Paul had recently sold a highly successful pharmaceutical services company they had spent years building. In looking to define their purpose beyond the business, they wanted to develop a plan to expand their philanthropic giving.
The solution: The couple’s UBS Client Advisor brought together members of the UBS Social Impact & Philanthropy team to help think through important questions around the couple’s philanthropic vision. These included looking at:
- What areas and specific issues were important to the couple
- Their patterns of giving in the past, including average size and type of assets
- How they want to be remembered
- Other family members they may want to involve
Based on a series of conversations, Tiffany and Paul were able to define their specific interests and intentions. These became the basis for a comprehensive philanthropic strategy that included setting up a private foundation with a plan to involve their two children and allow the family to direct gifts where they determined they would have the most impact.
The situation: John had received a sizeable inheritance and, as an avid diver and nature enthusiast, was looking to create the largest impact he could in terms of saving the world’s oceans. He was interested in collaborating with other philanthropists and organizations to move the needle on this cause.
The solution: Together with his UBS Client Advisor, John met with members of the UBS Social Impact & Philanthropy team who introduced him to the UBS Optimus Foundation. The foundation offers three ready-made opportunities to practice collective philanthropy, which offers several benefits, including:
- Working with people with shared interests and determination to solve an issue
- Participating in a learning experience with peers to boost knowledge, skills and confidence
- Connecting with powerful people, organizations and solutions to magnify efforts
After several discussions, John decided to join the UBS Climate Collective, which is focused on building coastal resilience, one of the most affected areas and where promising solutions exist.
