UBS announced Friday it ended a 9 billion Swiss franc ($10.27 billion) loss protection agreement and a 100 billion Swiss franc public liquidity backstop originally put in place by the Swiss government when the bank took over rival bank Credit Suisse in March. UBS shares ended the day around 4.7% higher.

Asia-Pacific markets largely fell on Monday, dragged by basic materials and consumer cyclical stocks. U.S. stock futures rose slightly on Sunday evening as Wall Street looked to shake off a rough start to August.
