Pictet Perspectives – Special Edition 2012
Established in 1805, Pictet & Cie is Europe’s largest and most venerable private bank. Switzerland’s 3rd largest asset manager after Credit Suisse and UBS, Pictet shares the label of “Swiss Bank” with these two behemoths but stands alone in terms of culture, sophistication, responsibility and execution. Indeed, the firm is run today almost as a family business and attributes much of its success to accountability, moderation and foresight, three core virtues of Calvinism. Impressive.
This past autumn, Pictet brought together its Wealth Management Investment Committee with external specialists of world renown to spend 2 days thoroughly analysing the global outlook. The result, linked below, is a must read.
