UBS Group AG plans to invest $200 million in digital and fintech ventures via a new portfolio, the Swiss bank said Tuesday.

The UBS Next portfolio will target direct investments into early-stage fintech and other tech ventures, and will begin with a partnership with fintech-focused venture capital fund Anthemis, UBS said.

UBS Next will be funded entirely by UBS and managed by a tech-investment team, the bank said.
