We are proud to announce that we were recently recognized in three categories at the 2026 InsuranceAsia News Institutional Asset Management Awards, which celebrate excellence among the asset managers and service providers supporting the Asia Pacific insurance sector.

Being named as Best Alternatives Manager, Best Emerging Markets Fixed Income Manager, and Insurance Fund House of the Year, China are results that reflect the breadth of our platform serving insurance clients across the region.

The Best Alternatives Manager award recognizes the launch of Unified Global Alternatives on 1 January 2025, which brought together alternatives capabilities from across Asset Management and Global Wealth Management into one of the largest LP platforms globally, with around USD 344 billion1 in invested assets.

The Best Emerging Markets Fixed Income Manager award reflects more than two decades of dedicated emerging market investing – including being among the earliest foreign managers operating onshore in China – and a process built on deep macro research, forward looking stress testing and high conviction, contrarian positioning.

Finally, Insurance Fund House of the Year, China recognizes our role as a trusted partner to more than 20 leading onshore insurers, and its deepening commitment to the market, including co chairing the Investment and Enterprise Asset Committee of the Insurance Asset Management Association of China (IAMAC).

Colleagues from across the business collected the honors at the awards ceremony held in June. Explore the individual award summaries below to learn what set UBS Asset Management apart in each category.
