Hello, I've been substantially improving the article over the past few days, but since this is paid editing I do not want to remove the {{ COI}} flag on top of the article myself. Hence this call for review (and, if needed, input on what to change/improve).
In a nutshell:

Hi there, user:TeeVeeed recently added the {{ COI}} tag to the top of the article. The article had already been reviewed and I had made the CoI declaration back when I improved it (see above), but we've discussed the matter and agreed that it would be best to ask a third party for removal. Thanks! Pplc ( talk) 06:43, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello, following the above remarks, could we please simplify the sections below (and then remove the {{ COI}} tag)? Thanks, Pplc ( talk) 10:02, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
Can we simplify the whole thing to:
Pictet is a private bank and asset manager based in Geneva, Switzerland, since 1805. It provides services in wealth management, asset management and asset servicing to private clients and institutions around the world.
Founded in Geneva at the beginning of the 19th century, Pictet has operated as a partnership throughout its history. Over the past 210 years, there have been only 41 partners, each with an average tenure of more than 21 years [1]. Today, it is organised as a corporate partnership of seven owner managers who are responsible for the entire business of the Group. Since its foundation, all of its growth has been achieved without making acquisitions or floating on a stock exchange.
The Pictet Group employs more than 3,700 people, including 900 investment managers. [2]It has a global network of 26 offices in financial services centres, including registered banks in Geneva, Luxemburg, Nassau, Hong Kong and Singapore. Pictet does not engage in investment banking, nor does it extend commercial loans.
According to the latest Annual Report, the Group had 437 CHF Bn of assets under management, with its total capital ratio significantly exceeding the levels demanded by Swiss regulators. [3]

The article gives Pictet's assets and staff in 2017 but according to Pictet's website (www.group.pictet/about) their assets have nearly doubled. Not sure how it works as a source and it doesn't have an immediate figure for asset managers so I'm going to leave it for someone else to implement. -- 148.64.27.12 ( talk) 10:52, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
