Wealth management in Italy

Pictet has forged a community of independent-minded professionals to become a trusted investment partner for wealthy individuals and families around the world. As a private bank, our independence allows us to set our own business strategy without pressure from external shareholders or creditors. Having no investment banking activities minimises conflicts of interest, leaving us free to focus on our sole purpose: serving you.

The Group operates with levels of capital well above those required by both Swiss and international capital-adequacy regulations. It can also rely on having the highest-grade balance sheet assets and a very comfortable liquidity position, resulting in Pictet being awarded some of the top ratings possible. You can find much more detail about our current capital position, which places us among the strongest financial firms globally, in our financial solidity document. Pictet’s business model  proves its worth in times of uncertainty. It is underpinned by a disciplined approach to risk management, but the model also places great emphasis on clients’ long-term needs as opposed to the pursuit of short-term gains. Being a fortress means the Group will continue to develop at a measured and controlled pace, to ensure consistency in its corporate culture, the stability of its teams and, the high standards of client service it provides.
