Equity markets have taken a wild ride this past year as everything from an unimaginable earthquake in Japan to a looming debt crisis in Europe have taken a toll on investor confidence. As 2011 draws to a close, many are left scratching their heads in confusion and uncertainty, given the predominantly gloomy economic outlook that many are expecting for the New Year. Financial behemoth UBS (UBS) has issued its economic outlook for 2012 along with a set of conservative investment principles that are sure to please the defensive-minded crowd worrisome of continuing economic turmoil.

Despite looming risks in developed and emerging markets alike, UBS outlines several investment strategies focusing on specific asset classes that are poised to perform well amidst the ongoing uncertainty. Below we profile several ETFs that coincide well with the main points discussed in the UBS 2012 global outlook report:
