Since it was founded, Pictet & Cie has focused solely on managing the wealth of private and institutional investors. It does not engage in any form of investment banking, nor does it issue any commercial, mortgage or unsecured loans.
Pictet & Cie is a partnership owned by eight managing Partners who stand personally and entirely liable for the Bank's commitments. As such, the Bank enjoys total financial independence, controls the entire chain of its operations and does not need the approval of shareholders in taking decisions.
