The Red Thread

Connecting the dots from macro themes to portfolio decisions.

The Red Thread is UBS Asset Management’s ideas and insights platform. It brings long-term themes to life through clear analysis, original perspectives and dialogue across multiple formats.

What sets The Red Thread apart

  • Long-term thematic lens

    We focus on the structural shifts shaping markets across cycles, beyond short-term market moves.

  • Direct from our investment teams

    Perspectives come from UBS Asset Management portfolio managers, strategists and external thinkers, offering original views rather than consensus.

  • Multi-format dialogue

    Ideas are explored across articles, in-depth publications, conversations and live events, so you can engage in the format that best suits you.
