While I think that this makes the cut, I have a couple of comments:
- Some entire paragraphs are not cited. These paragraphs mention specific figures, and while nobody may necessarily believe these figures to be controversial, they should probably be cited anyways. The usual rule of thumb is a citation per paragraph as the bare minimum.
- Has you or anybody discussed the length of the article? Admittedly, I have worked on long articles as well, but never anything this long (my longest article is probably around 87kB, for comparison).

Comment:
- Secrecy should be mentionned in the lead section of UBS I think, because it corrupts the entire company since we can't know for sure who has open accounts there or the source of the money. UBS is allegedly one of the largest money launderer on the planet.
- Defrauding the US government by UBS should also be mentionned since it is a grave accusation that has been admitted by UBS itself in front of the US Congress last year.
- Communications problems between Jewish communities and the Swiss Bank UBS should also be mentionned because it affected the whole Nazi Gold Affair saga during the 90's in Switzerland. I am referring to the "peanuts" comments by the CEO of UBS.
- The Swiss government and Swiss judiciary involvement with the Swiss Banks (including UBS) should also be mentionned during the Nazi Gold Affair saga.
- UBS has been a financial contributor to US Presidential campaigns and the ICRC as well (should be mentionned if it is not the case already).
- Please make sure that revelant sources are used throughout the text as this above is public information in Switzerland and beyond to the best of my knowledge. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.197.144.38 (talk) 01:09, 28 September 2010 (UTC)
- I forgot to add to the list above the cost to the Swiss taxpayer, as the $60 billion bailout paid by the Swiss National Bank to UBS will have to be borne by the taxpayer ultimately. SSZ (talk) 02:48, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
