UBS MTF typically observes the market practice for open business days and trading hours. UBS MTF trading hours cover the continuous trading hours of the primary markets and where a primary local market is closed on a business day or will not trade a particular stock, the UBS MTF will be closed for that market or will not trade the instrument.
The UBS MTF Supervision and Support staff is available between 7.30 and 17.30 UK time.
