UBS should be given the chance to start fresh. Although some management shakeup was necessary, the remaining board members are all quite experienced. NewsVisual created a 2-degree interactive map of the board members at UBS http://www.newsvisual.com/newsvisual/2007/10/ubs-board-ties-.html . As can be seen from the map, they are quite experienced in managing various companies and industries.
