The Swiss investment-banking giant will need to take another $5 billion of write-downs on mortgage securities and other investments, Sonntags Zeitung reported. Reuters said that the paper didn't cite sources for its information and that UBS declined comment on the report.
As of the middle of last month, UBS had written down $42 billion since the start of the credit crisis.
