Piepenburg, Williams, Schechtman and Martin Agree: The World Is Dramatically Shifting, Gold is Essential

February 16, 2024

VON GREYERZ partner, Matthew Piepenburg, joins VON GREYERZ advisor, Grant Williams along with Andy Schectman and Jay Martin in the opening presentation at the recent Vancouver Resource Investment Conference to discuss the truly “tectonic shifts” in the global political and financial playing field.

The panel gives specific attention to the now undeniable and growing trend toward de-dollarization and the rise of the BRICS+ trading alliances outside of the USD. The evidence of the shift away from the USD and UST in the wake of the 2022 Putin sanctions is literally everywhere, from Main Street and the bond market to global currency, energy and gold markets.

For longer-term investors seeking to prepare for these changes, this special panel makes it clear that change is not just coming, it is already here. Knowing where currency and bond markets are moving, as well as global trade, the extent and implications of these changes won’t be scary but opportunistic. Of course, gold will play a central role in the new world unfolding before our very eyes.

Matt began his finance career as a transactional attorney before launching his first hedge fund during the NASDAQ bubble of 1999-2001

Thereafter, he began investing his own and other HNW family funds into alternative investment vehicles while operating as a General Counsel, CIO and later Managing Director of a single and multi-family office. Matthew worked closely as well with Morgan Stanley’s hedge fund platform in building a multi-strat/multi-manager fund to better manage risk in a market backdrop of extreme central bank intervention/support. The conviction that precious metals provides the most reliable and longer-term protection against potential systemic risk led Matt to join VON GREYERZ.
