11:50 PM EST, 11/02/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Moody's Ratings on Monday affirmed its senior unsecured debt, long- and short-term deposit, and long-term issuer ratings on UBS Group (UBSG.SW) at A2, Aa2/P-1, and Aa2, respectively, with stable outlooks. The affirmation reflects the Swiss lender's robust capital and liquidity position, effective risk controls, and low credit risk. However, Moody's noted UBS' exposure to capital markets and its reliance on deposits from wealthy clients, which could be volatile during periods of financial stress. The stable outlooks indicate Moody's expectation that UBS will maintain strong capital and liquidity levels alongside sound profitability, despite fluctuations in capital markets earnings.
