Important Note
Recently it has come into the attention of Pictet Asset Management group ("Pictet") that our trade name "Pictet" and/or our logo have been misused by unauthorized persons in Mainland China and Hong Kong for illegal fund-raising from Chinese investors, such as providing retail investors with stock trading training and account opening and stock trading services in the name of "Pictet" via mobile apps and chat groups. Some Chinese individual investors have alleged that they have suffered losses due to such fraud. We reserve all our legal rights to take legal actions against such unauthorized usage of our name and/or logo which may lead to reputational loss on us.

Pictet would like to alert the public and hereby declares the following:

1. Pictet's only official website is www.am.pictet and Pictet Asset Management's mobile apps (i.e. Pictet AM) are only available for download at App Store and Google Play. All other webpages and apps other than aforementioned are unrelated to Pictet.
