Hyderabad, Feb 12: UBS today announced the opening of a new office in Hyderabad at Centaurus by Phoenix in Gachibowli, further expanding its footprint in the city and strengthening its long-term presence in India.
“Telangana is building a strong ecosystem for Global Capability Centers, and we are pleased to see UBS has chosen to expand its presence in Hyderabad. UBS has emerged as a strong partner in Telangana’s growth story, bringing global scale and deep capabilities to the state’s GCC ecosystem. We view this expansion as a long-term partnership in growth that strengthens Hyderabad’s role in global innovation while contributing to the broader India–Switzerland & EU economic relationship,” said Shri D.

“The Trade and Economic Partnership Agreement (TEPA) will further strengthen the already robust economic ties between Switzerland and India. It will create new opportunities for businesses and individuals in both countries through investment, manufacturing and trade, as well as by generating more jobs. UBS’s growing presence in India aligns with this vision, reinforcing India‘s role as a strategic hub for supporting global innovation and service delivery on a large scale,” said Dr. Angela Honegger, CEO & Consul General at Swissnex in India, Consulate General of Switzerland.
For more than a decade, UBS’s teams in India have been contributing to the firm’s global platform with depth and scale across technology, finance and operations.
