Our mission

We are dedicated to achieving the highest global standards in all aspects of asset management. We aim to add value consistently for our clients through higher risk-adjusted returns that are solidly grounded in our own expertise.


Our vision

Our aim is to be known as a world class provider of asset management services to professional investors.

Our people

Our focus attracts highly qualified people dedicated to the business of investment management. Pictet Asset Management stands out owing to the quality of its employees at all levels, the result of the most discerning recruitment policy, and a commitment to career and personal development over the long term.

Investment and business development executives enjoy compensation structures directly related to their individual and team performance, while those showing a major long-term contribution to Pictet may also aspire to an equity share in the Bank's partnership.

Although we emphasise organic growth through the development of our own professional staff, we recruit both graduates and seasoned investment professionals. In the case of graduates, we look for a top class degree, preferably with one or two languages in addition to their mother tongue. Many also hold a postgraduate qualification. All junior fund managers and analysts are required to take the CFA exam as part of our graduate training programme.

Stability, continuity and independence have allowed us to maintain a low staff turnover rate.
