The aim of this work is to investigate the possible existence of the UV-excess in the Milky Way bulge and its correlation with the presence of sdB stars in the bulge. The integrated spectrum of a bulge region from the UV to the optical was constructed. Results show that this bulge region has only a very weak UV excess
