Because you have an obligation of results
The management of pension fund assets, like the management of companies’ financial investments, carries an obligation of results. In addition, pension funds are subject to specific regulatory constraints. All of this demands strict risk control and a long-term performance perspective. These preoccupations are part and parcel of the philosophy of Banque Piguet.
Because you expect active management of assets and risk
We do not use a passive or index-based management approach, which has shown its limits whenever a market excess occurs. We believe in the benefits of active management, which relies on fundamental analysis, when it is exercised with an independence of spirit. We base our approach on a simultaneously rigorous and imaginative reading of the markets in order to determine an investment policy that does not simply follow fashions. For this reason we have no hesitation, where appropriate, about deviating from the indexes or departing from the consensus.
Because you count on reactivity
Our small size is our trump card in more ways than one. It offers you the assurance of being able to rely on the cohesion of a team that is based on real know-how, closely combining independent strategic research with acute talent-spotting in specialised segments. This leads to quick decision-making and great flexibility: the strategic decisions taken by common consent are applied without delay.
Because you prefer a stable, high-quality relationship
If reactivity is one of the advantages of a human-scale bank, the quality of relationships is another. Without doubt, the trust placed in us by our institutional clients is based on the results that we obtain; but it is also based on the stability of contacts, all motivated by the same conviction, and on the pleasure of being able to share this conviction with you.
