UBS Group AG has bolstered its presence in Japan's financial industry by recruiting three experienced sales professionals to enhance its offerings of high-yield structured investments and customized derivative products.
The new additions to the team include Shuhei Sanada, formerly of HSBC Holdings Plc, who will lead sales efforts targeting regional financial institutions. Eiichiro Yoshida from Nissay Asset Management Corp. and Hiroaki Sato from Barclays Plc have also joined UBS Securities Japan Co. on January 1.
This strategic move reflects the increasing demand for structured investment products among local financial firms and demonstrates UBS's commitment to expanding its market share in Japan.
