UBS in tie-up to launch talent initiative in Taiwan

UBS and the National University of Taiwan (NTU) have signed an agreement to launch the NTU-UBS Youth Talent Program.

Targeting 100 students in their second and third years in the Department of Economics of NTU, the three-year sponsorship project, "The Practice of Financial Sector and Industry", is scheduled to begin in March 2017. 

It will be supported by members of UBS senior management.

The five-month programme will cover asset management, international economics, investment banking and wealth management. Courses will be hosted by executives from across UBS' businesses, with office visits at the end of the programme. 

Students participating in the course will also be eligible for UBS group's internships programme.

The NTU-UBS Youth Talent Program is one of a number of university programmes in which UBS is involved in Asia Pacific. It complements the UBS and Society initiative – a cross-divisional, umbrella platform which includes sustainable investing and community projects.
