Welcome to UBS Hana Asset Management, a joint venture formed between Hana Financial Group and UBS Global Asset Management on 27 July 2007.
In creating UBS Hana Asset Management we have brought together two strong partners: one of the world's leading asset managers with a company at the heart of Korean business for more than 30 years. Combining Hana Financial Group's longstanding domestic history and deep local knowledge with UBS Global Asset Management's global reach and resources, we offer a diverse set of products across the investment spectrum, while providing the highest level of service. One of the key factors that brought us together was our commitment to client service. In order to give clients confidence in their investment decisions, we will always gain a thorough understanding of their needs before offering individually tailored solutions that draw upon a vast array of innovative global products and services. Over time we will also be introducing international best practices throughout UBS Hana Asset Management, leveraging UBS Global Asset Management's world leading risk management systems and processes, and extensive investment knowledge. This will enable us to provide the assurance and peace of mind that clients demand. Integrity is key to preserving our most valuable asset - our reputation and trust earned with clients. I expect our employees to embrace our ethical beliefs and strive for the highest standards. As a responsible corporate citizen, we also aim to contribute positively to the community in Korea, both through the actions of our employees and in our day-to-day business. Another fundamental trait shared by both joint venture partners is our dedication to creating a culture that allows us to attract and retain the very best employees in the industry. We will foster a distinctive, meritocratic culture of ambition and performance, providing opportunities for the development of each and every employee. I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to the launch of UBS Hana Asset Management. In particular, our employees, whose dedication and professionalism have ensured and will continue to ensure our success. We have all worked extremely hard to make this transition as seamless as possible. However, more work will continue over the coming months as we embed these common values into UBS Hana Asset Management. This is a long-term commitment for both joint venture partners, and you are all invited to monitor our development and share with me any comments or ideas you may have. We very much look forward to continuing our partnership with you in the future. Welcome to UBS Hana Asset Management! Yours sincerely  Andreas Neuber Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer UBS Hana Asset Management |
