The UBS Optimus Foundation makes UBS unique in the financial industry. Because only UBS has a foundation that is staffed by leading experts in philanthropy and has a client offering designed to deliver measurable long term benefits to the world's most vulnerable children.We take the business minded approach to philanthropy you'd expect from UBS. Our global coverage proven expertise and unrivaled knowledge enable us to transform good ideas into great projects. We know that even the best concepts need the right guidance and we never assume a project will work just because it seems like the obvious solution. In fact we challenge project assumptions rigorously only 5% meet our tough standards. And UBS is so confident about those projects we select that it co funds them. This maximizes our projects' reach and ensures they make a sustainable and significant impact. Best of all we guarantee that 100% of all donations go to projects that benefit children because UBS covers all our costs.
