UBS Europe SE, Frankfurt am Main, Zweigniederlassung Schweiz, Opfikon

UBS Europe SE, Frankfurt am Main, Zweigniederlassung Schweiz, Opfikon is the Swiss branch of UBS Europe SE, the German banking subsidiary of UBS Group. The branch operates in Opfikon and supports cross-border wealth management and investment services, functioning primarily as a relationship-managed office rather than a retail counter location. Client accounts and deposits are booked with UBS Europe SE in Germany, and the entity is subject to prudential supervision by the European Central Bank and BaFin, with the Swiss branch overseen locally by FINMA for its activities in Switzerland. Statutory deposit protection for eligible deposits follows the German scheme (generally up to EUR 100,000 per depositor per bank); the Swiss esisuisse guarantee does not apply to this branch. Investment and advisory services are provided under EU rules (including MiFID II), with Swiss requirements (such as FinSA) applying where relevant to activity in Switzerland. Typical offerings include investment advisory, discretionary mandates, custody and brokerage, Lombard lending, payments, and foreign exchange; documentation, reporting, and investor classification follow EU standards, and services are commonly delivered via UBS’s secure digital channels alongside dedicated relationship teams. Fees generally comprise custody and advisory charges, transaction commissions, and FX spreads, varying by mandate and product set. Data processing is governed by GDPR for the EU entity, with Swiss data protection rules applicable to local processing. Clients should consider cross-border tax and reporting implications, currency risks when holding non-euro deposits, and the legal counterparty distinction between UBS Europe SE and Swiss-domiciled UBS entities. Complaints and dispute resolution follow UBS Europe SE procedures and applicable German mechanisms.
