Investors across the country have expressed deep concerns about America's long-term economic growth, which have intensified against the backdrop of the debt ceiling crisis in Washington. UBS responded directly to these concerns with insights and perspectives from some of the most distinguished economic and political leaders of our day.

In the second in a series of presidential conversations,¹ President William J. Clinton and President George W. Bush joined UBS Wealth Management Americas CEO Robert J. McCann in sharing their perspectives on some of the pressing issues facing the nation. While the presidents' views diverged on some policy matters, they clearly agreed on some fundamentals. These included the need to reform healthcare, improve education, stimulate small business and maintain confidence in the ability of the U.S. to overcome its challenges and increase our competitive edge for future generations.

An Executive Summary of the evening with the presidents provides a complete overview of their conversation. To discuss how you can apply some of these ideas to your investments, connect with your UBS Financial Advisor or find a UBS Financial Advisor.

UBS is also proud to play a role in creating jobs in America and announced a joint small business initiative with President Clinton at the Clinton Global Initiative in Chicago.
