yes they have massive tier 1 capital but also huge write-down
i wont be too surprised if they sell the ib unit or merge with others like cs
yeah~
but they also raise massive funds (some USD 30bn, not sure) from sovereign wealth fund and right issue early in this year before the departure of Ospel.
You are right.
UBS is scaling down the the IB unit.
But I dont think they need to merge as the cash available for them is different from their US counterparts.
After all, they are the largest wealth management group in this world.
Or they have some hidden problems, like the investment unit in AIG, I dont know~~
