By focusing on what’s really important to you, together we can help you maintain your lifestyle and give you the confidence to fund for your short-term spending needs. UBS Bank USA offers a wide range of competitive, flexible and strategic cash solutions, each designed to work together with your wealth management plans.1

You, as our client, can choose from a wide range of liquidity strategies and benefit from a source of stable assets with competitive rates and the added security of FDIC insurance up to applicable limits. (For more information on FDIC insurance see footnote 2.)

Understanding the various purposes of your cash can help you make the most of it

Everyday cash

Everyday cash provides immediate access to funds and may be used for day-to-day purchases or expenses, including paying bills. Available “cash” in your UBS Financial Services Inc. securities account(s) is automatically “swept” daily to bank deposit accounts held at UBS Bank USA or depending on the sweep program, the banks listed at ubs.com/bankprioritylists.3 You’ll get access to cash management services, including online tools such as mobile check deposit as well as traditional cash transaction features, allowing you to easily manage both your everyday cash and investment needs–all in one place.

Savings cash

Grow your savings cash for large near-term expenses, unexpected life events or as an emergency fund. With no market or liquidity risk, UBS Bank USA Core Savings (UBS Core Savings) can help you keep your long-term investment strategy on track with the safety of FDIC insurance up to applicable limits while earning competitive yields. (For more information on FDIC insurance see footnote 2.)  You’ll enjoy more flexibility than term deposits, with up to five withdrawals per month. Thereafter, a $25 fee per withdrawal applies, or liquidation of the entire UBS Core Savings balance will apply, depending on your account type (applicable fees may reduce earnings).  To withdraw funds, visit UBS Online Services or simply call your Financial Advisor.4 Review the UBS Core Savings Disclosure Statement for additional details.

Investment cash

Generally speaking, investment cash is left untouched for a specified term to enjoy higher rates, which may carry additional market/credit risks and fees. Investment cash is typically used as part of your asset allocation and can include cash and cash alternatives, such as Certificates of Deposit.
