CS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Credit Suisse Group AG (“CSG”), a global financial services company. This Base Prospectus is prepared for the purposes of Article 5.4 of Directive 2003/71/EC as amended or superseded (the “Prospectus Directive”) and for the purpose of giving information relating to the Issuer which is necessary to enable investors (the “Investors”) to make an informed assessment of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits, losses and prospects of the Issuer, and of the rights attaching to securities issued under this Base Prospectus. This Base Prospectus is valid for one year and may be supplemented from time to time by the publication of a “Supplement” to reflect any significant new factor, material mistake or inaccuracy relating to information included in this Base Prospectus. It should be read together with (i) any Supplements to it, (ii) any other documents incorporated by reference into it and (iii) in relation to any particular Securities, the Final Terms (as defined below) relating to those Securities. This Base Prospectus replaces the Base Prospectus dated 10th July 2018. This Base Prospectus does not affect any existing securities issued by the Issuer, or any future securities issued by the Issuer under a different prospectus. In respect of any series of Securities, this Base Prospectus will be completed by a final terms document containing economic and other terms specific to that series (“Final Terms”). Securities This Base Prospectus relates to securities (the “Securities”) which: may have any maturity; may bear interest at either a fixed rate or a floating rate; may pay premium on top of the interest payable; may redeem at maturity or, following the occurrence of certain events or the exercise of an early redemption option by either the Issuer or the securityholder (the “Securityholder”) (if such an option is provided for in the Final Terms), beforehand; will redeem at an amount determined by a formula referencing the performance of one or more equity shares or equity indices (the “Reference Underlyings”); or, if provided for in the Final Terms, by the delivery by 1 Issuer to Securityholder of a certain number of certain other specified securities in lieu of such amount; or, if provided for in the relevant Final Terms, at a fixed amount; and may pay distribution amounts linked to certain distributions made by the issuers of Reference Underlyings that are equity shares. Terms and Conditions This Prospectus contains, among other things, the legal terms and conditions relating to the Securities, which include the following: (a) general terms that apply to all Securities (referred to as the “General Terms and Conditions of the Securities”, on pages 109 to 176); and (b) if the Reference Underlying(s) relating to the Securities is/are equity shares (such Securities, “Equity Linked Securities”), terms specific to Equity Linked Securities (referred to as “Schedule 1: Provisions Relating to Equity Linked Securities”, on pages 177 to 191); or (c) if the Reference Underlying relating to the Securities is an equity index (such Securities, “Index Linked Securities”), terms specific to Index Linked Securities (referred to as “Schedule 2: Provisions Relating to Index Linked Securities”, on pages 192 to 199). All the sections of the terms and conditions contained in this Prospectus taken together are referred to as the “Conditions”. Specific details of a series of Securities, such as amounts, dates, rates and the application (or disapplication) of certain base conditions will be set out in the applicable Final Terms for those Securities. Risks Prospective investors should have regard to the factors described under the section headed “Risk Factors” in this Base Prospectus, on pages 33 to 66. This Base Prospectus describes all of the principal and material risks of an investment in the Securities that have been identified by the Issuer. 2 Important Notices IMPORTANT NOTICES The Issuer may issue Securities through its Nassau Branch or its Singapore Branch on the terms set out in this Base Prospectus and in the relevant Final Terms. Investors should be aware that certain tax and regulatory consequences may follow from issuing Securities through either the Nassau Branch or the Singapore Branch, including whether payments on the Securities are subject to withholding tax: see the section headed “Taxation” below. The Nassau Branch is subject to certain Bahamas regulatory requirements and rules, and the Singapore Branch is subject to certain Singapore regulatory requirements and rules, the breach of which, in each case, may result in regulatory sanction and, possibly, investor claims. Investors should be aware that a branch is not a subsidiary and does not comprise a separate legal entity and that, in respect of any Securities issued by CS, obligations under such Securities are those of CS only, and investors’ claims under such Securities are against CS only, notwithstanding the branch through which it will have issued such Securities. Credit Suisse AG, Singapore Branch is licensed as a wholesale bank under the Banking Act, Chapter 19 of Singapore and is subject to restrictions on the acceptance of deposits in Singapore dollars. The Securities do not constitute or evidence a debt repayable by Credit Suisse AG, Singapore Branch on demand to the Securityholders and the value of the Securities, if sold on the secondary market, is subject to market conditions prevailing at the time of the sale. Please refer to the section headed “General Terms and Conditions of the Securities” together with the relevant Final Terms for the terms and conditions under which the Securityholders may recover amounts payable or deliverable to them on the Securities from the Issuer. Approval and passporting for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive Application has been made to the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the “CSSF”) in its capacity as the Luxembourg competent authority under the Luxembourg Act dated 10th July 2005 on prospectuses for securities as amended from time to time (the “Luxembourg Prospectus Law”). This Base Prospectus constitutes a base prospectus for the purposes of Article 5.4 of the Prospectus Directive for the purpose of giving information with regard to Securities to be issued by CS. The Issuer has requested the CSSF to provide the competent authority, for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive in Ireland, with a certificate of approval in accordance with Article 18 of the Prospectus Directive attesting that this Base Prospectus has been drawn up in accordance with the Prospectus Directive. The CSSF assumes no responsibility for the economic and financial soundness of the transactions contemplated by this Base Prospectus and the quality or solvency of the Issuer in line with the provisions of Article 7(7) of the Luxembourg Law dated 10th July 2005 on Prospectuses for securities. Listing and admission to trading Securities issued by the Issuer may be (a) listed and admitted to trading on a regulated market(s) for the purposes of the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2014/65/EU) (as amended, “MiFID II”), (b) listed on a market not regulated for such purpose, or (c) not listed on any market, in each case, as shall be specified in the relevant Final Terms. Application has also been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for Securities issued under the Programme to be admitted to trading on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange’s regulated market and to be listed on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The Luxembourg Stock Exchange’s regulated market is a regulated market for the purposes of MiFID II. There is no assurance that the application to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for the listing of the Securities will be approved. Admission to the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange is not to be taken as an indication of the merits of the Issuer or of the merits of investing in any Securities. If any Securities are (a) listed or admitted to trading on a regulated market for the purposes of MiFID II or (b) listed on a market not regulated for such purpose, the Issuer will not be obliged to maintain the listing of the Securities if the Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that the circumstances, such as a change in listing requirements, render it impracticable to do so. Securities may be issued under the Programme which are not listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange or market or Securities may be issued which are listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on such other stock exchange or markets (such as The Irish Stock Exchange plc trading as Euronext Dublin (“Euronext Dublin”)) as the Issuer may decide. IMPORTANT – EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA (“EEA”) RETAIL INVESTORS The Securities are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a “retail investor” means a person who 3 Important Notices is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC, as amended or superseded, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive.

  • The Pictet Model a Company That Continuously Reinvents Its Family Ownership
    The Pictet model A company that continuously reinvents its family ownership Fourth Edition July 2019 A case study by Torsten Groth and Fritz B. Simon Witten Institute for Family Business The original case study was published in 2005 in the book Mehr-Generationen-­ Familienunter­nehmen­by Photo credits: Jillian Edelstein, F.B. Simon, R. Wimmer, Olivier Christinat, Sabine Senn, T. Groth, Carl Auer Verlag Pictet Historical Archives A company that continuously reinvents its family ownership f all the ways we know to ensure the survival of a compa - ny, the most radical was developed by the Geneva wealth and asset management group Pictet. It combines family and business structural principles, in a unique – perhaps Oeven ideal – way. Yet, over the past 200 years or so, the organisa - tional structure of Pictet has been constantly refined on the basis of tried-and-tested practice, after originally evolving in an un - planned way. What makes the Pictet model so appealing is that it seems to have succeeded in squaring the circle. It may be true that family businesses gain a survival advantage compared with listed com - panies since their capital is provided by a family rather than a market, but therein lies their risk, too, since family dynamics are centred on personalities, and emotions play a central role in be - haviour and decision-making. Pictet's partnership model seems to have found a way to exploit the advantages of family-type structures to the maximum, while at the same time reducing the associated risks to the minimum. 1 — 1 We should like to thank Ivan Pictet (Senior Partner from 2005 to 2010), who provided insights into the organisational model of his business for the first edition of the book, once the actual research project had been completed.

    GLOBAL INVESTOR STATEMENT TO GOVERNMENTS ON CLIMATE CHANGE This statement is signed by 631 investors representing over USD $37 trillion in assets. As institutional investors with millions of beneficiaries around the world, we reiterate our full support for the Paris Agreement [link] and strongly urge all governments to implement the actions that are needed to achieve the goals of the Agreement, with the utmost urgency. Investors are taking action on climate change. The global shift to clean energy is underway, but much more needs to be done by governments to accelerate the low carbon transition and to improve the resilience of our economy, society and the financial system to climate risks. Investors continue to make significant investments into the low carbon transition across a range of asset classes. Investors are also increasingly incorporating climate change scenarios and climate risk management strategies into their investment processes and engaging with high-emitting companies. To build on this momentum and maintain investor confidence to further shift investment portfolios, it is vital that policy makers are firmly committed to achieving the goals of the Paris Agreement. We are concerned that the implementation of the Paris Agreement is currently falling short of the agreed goal of “holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre- industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.” There is an ambition gap: the full implementation of current Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) would lead to an unacceptably high temperature increase that would cause substantial negative economic impacts.

    PICTET WEALTH MANAGEMENT FLASH NOTE ASSET ALLOCATION & MACRO RESEARCH 06 May 2021 Q&A: NEXT GENERATION EU THE EU’S RECOVERY FUND PRESENTS CHALLENGES AS WELL AS OPPORTUNITIES SUMMARY Author › In July 2020, EU leaders took an unprecedented decision to launch a recovery fund NADIA GHARBI, CFA worth €750bn, labelled Next Generation EU (NGEU). [email protected] › To finance NGEU, the European Commission, will borrow an average of €150 bn per year between mid-2021 and 2026 on capital markets. All borrowing is set to be repaid by 2058. › The core element of NGEU is the ‘Recovery and Resilience Facility’ (RFF). › To be eligible for the RFF, EU member states must present proposals for ‘investment and reform initiatives’ to be implemented before 2026. Each state must devote at least 37% of the funds they receive to climate-related objectives and a further 20% to digital initiatives. › Italy and Spain will be the two largest beneficiaries of NGEU grants in absolute terms, while eastern and peripheral countries in general will be the main beneficiaries relative to GDP. › Take-up of NGEU funds will probably be limited until 2022. The overall economic impact will depend as much on governments ability to use the money efficiently and productively as on how rapidly it is deployed. › NGEU could help countries, particularly in southern Europe, to boost their potential growth and make debt more sustainable. › The main differences between the US and Europe depend not so much on the size of policy packages as on the political commitment and mindset. Europe lacks commitment to continuous fiscal expansion beyond the pandemic.
