About me

Hello! I’m an expert in asset protection during times of crisis, backed by over 30 years of hands-on experience in financial markets. For many years, I served as Head of Portfolio Management and Research, as well as Senior Portfolio Manager, at renowned global financial institutions. 

During my tenure at Credit Suisse Asset Management, I successfully managed Europe’s largest commodity fund, overseeing more than 1.5 billion in assets.

Throughout numerous financial market upheavals, I consistently performed exceptionally well. More than two decades ago, I began studying why crises can be predicted time and again and identifying the common pattern that repeats over time. 

My core belief is this: once you know which phase of a cycle you’re in, you can strategically position yourself against mainstream thinking and gain a real competitive edge. History shows that the majority almost always misreads the critical turning points in cycles—making contrarian moves some of the most rewarding opportunities.

In 2007, I earned my doctorate focusing on financial market instability. Drawing on the practical and academic insights I gained, I developed forecasts that proved accurate on multiple occasions, including:

  • The bursting of the dotcom bubble (predicted 2 months in advance)
  • The financial crisis and Lehman collapse (predicted 6 months in advance)
  • The energy and inflation crisis (predicted 6 months in advance)
  • The start of the Ukraine conflict (predicted 6 months in advance)
  • Re-election of Donald Trump (predicted 4 months in advance)

 

I leverage these experiences to guide investors and asset managers in safeguarding their portfolios—even amid turbulent times—and in seizing opportunities that arise from major market disruptions.
