ubs faces scrutiny over historical links to slavery and colonialism
UBS has faced criticism for its lack of transparency regarding its historical ties to slavery, despite evidence linking its predecessor institutions to the slave trade. Swiss historian Hans Fässler has urged UBS to acknowledge its colonial past, but the bank has dismissed these claims, citing a lack of evidence. Many company archives remain closed, hindering further research into the extent of Swiss financial institutions' involvement in slavery.
