Meet 
Alexander

My name is Alexander Ospischev. I am a financial expert who enjoys working with clients who appreciate good quality work. 

​

For more than 15 years, I have been involved in investments on the stock market in leading investment companies. I worked with international investment funds investing in Russia, as well as wealthy Russian clients investing in international markets. I started as a client manager and grew up to the position of managing director. For the last couple of years, I retired from the corporate world and focused on my family and private consulting. 

 

I assist my clients with a wide variety of issues related to personal finance and stock market investments. The range of questions is quite broad: from opening a bank or brokerage account in various countries to planning an inheritance. The main focus of my work is to form an investment strategy based on the individual goals of the client and help them to follow and achieve these goals - from the initial set of objectives to creating and monitoring the investment portfolio.

​

I follow the classical approach to successful long-term investing – passive investments based on asset allocation principles. Its effectiveness has been confirmed by a lot of academic research, and besides - nothing more effective has been invented yet. The basic aspects of the portfolio approach are not rocket science, and most of the educated, motivated people reading this are able to master them in a few weeks of thoughtful education. However, when it comes to practical application - forming a portfolio, choosing instruments, and most importantly, investing money - i.e. the practical and psychological aspects - my experience and help become very useful.  

 

Why me:

​

1. My experience in creating international investment products allows me to find and use the most effective instruments currently available in major international markets for most of us. 

​

2. Many investors and investment consultants are used to working mainly with their domestic markets. The so-called home bias. Most portfolios of US investors will be invested in the US market, the UK by the UK, etc. This is not only risky, but it's also not effective. I have worked mainly in Russian companies, but I have specialized in international markets - from the UK and the US to China and Brazil. I do not limit my portfolio to one country or continent, the modern world has long been global, and we can invest in stocks and bonds of various developed and developing countries – whichever is most suitable for any particular reason. 

​

3. Because many people are ill-equipped to make complex financial decisions on their own, I can provide a valuable service in helping investors make such decisions. However, it can be difficult for an individual to evaluate the advice they receive and identify when that advice has been influenced by a conflict of interest. Having worked on the other side of the barricade – I know exactly how it’s working, how to avoid pitfalls and make the most value from any financial tool. 

​

4. I have helped countless people and formed dozens of portfolios that help people obtain efficient income from their investments. I am ready to work in various formats: one-time individual consultations, a second opinion on a current investment portfolio, full-scale support of an investment portfolio, training programs
