UBS posts $1.25 billion second-quarter profit, publishes results early
"In order to be transparent and counter certain incorrect and misleading information that has become public, UBS (UBSN.CH)chose to release its second quarter 2015 results one day early," the Swiss bank said in a statement.
On Sunday, Swiss weekly Sonntagszeitung reported that the Zurich-based bank would post a year-on-year increase of about 25 percent in quarterly net profit with around 1.5 billion francs of earnings.
