M&ABS

UBS Switzerland AG / UBS AG

UBS Switzerland AG received CHF 4.26 billion in assets from UBS AG in a massive internal asset transfer — the latest step in UBS's post-Credit Suisse integration. The CHF 512.6M net transfer represents the domestic banking book being consolidated into the Swiss subsidiary. While not a true M&A event, the scale dwarfs all other weekly transactions and reflects the ongoing restructuring of Switzerland's banking landscape into a single dominant institution.

SUCCESSIONBL · MEM: Machinery & Automation

Hatebur Umformmaschinen AG

Hatebur Umformmaschinen AG (Reinach, BL), a globally recognized manufacturer of hot and cold forming machines, lost board member Andreas Moser with no replacement. Hatebur is a cornerstone of Basel-Landschaft's precision machinery cluster, supplying forging presses to automotive and aerospace manufacturers worldwide. The departure from this family-owned industrial champion is a significant succession signal for the Swiss MEM sector.

DISTRESSAG

SMAM GmbH in Liquidation

SMAM GmbH (Reinach, AG) entered bankruptcy and liquidation by court order. The company, established in 2022, operated in the business services space. Its rapid failure — barely three years after incorporation — exemplifies the high mortality rate among small Swiss GmbHs in crowded service sectors where differentiation is difficult and client acquisition costs can quickly exceed revenues.

Wöchentliche Einschätzung

Activity moderated in W07 as the January registration wave receded. New registrations fell 11.4% to 1,231, while board changes dropped 7.9% to 2,112 — both trending toward a sustainable baseline. Liquidations, however, surged 34.7% to 353, the highest weekly count of 2026, as cantonal registrars processed year-end voluntary dissolutions that had been accumulating since December.

Bankruptcies held essentially flat at 179 (-2.2%), continuing the gradual normalization from W04's peak of 227. Construction remains the most affected sector, with Envon GmbH (est. 2024, Zurich) and ARTI GROUP CONSTRUCTIONS (est. 2021, Geneva) both filing — a reminder that the barrier to entry in Swiss construction is low, but survival past the first three years remains challenging.

The week's headline deal was UBS Switzerland AG's CHF 4.3 billion asset transfer from UBS AG — a continuation of the post-Credit Suisse integration, moving domestic banking assets into the Swiss legal entity. In the real economy, Pratica Holding AG's absorption of Hasler + Co AG Oerlikon (CHF 4.9M in assets) signals consolidation in Zurich's industrial services sector. Hatebur Umformmaschinen AG's board departure in Reinach (BL) adds another succession signal in the machinery belt straddling Basel-Landschaft.
