UBS Group AG has received positive feedback from analysts, with Aaron Alber of Raiffeisen Bank International AG maintaining a Buy recommendation for the shares. The price target has been increased to CHF 32 from CHF 30, reflecting UBS's strong position in advising wealthy clients.

The recent acquisition of Credit Suisse is expected to further enhance UBS's market position. The integration of Credit Suisse will create a global asset management powerhouse with over USD 6 trillion in invested assets. This strategic move will allow UBS to expand its influence in the commission-heavy advisory sector, strengthening its competitive advantage. Alber's analysis, based on a dividend discount model and consensus estimates, highlights the potential for UBS to leverage this acquisition to improve its service offerings and increase its market share among affluent clients.
