Our Purpose
Amid increasing monitoring and growing macroeconomic uncertainty, Econ Americas provides a North Star for wealth protection and proactive investing. We guide you into alternative assets—such as mining resources, private equity, and cryptocurrencies—and offshore strategies. Our goal is to support you in navigating the evolving financial system.
Our Team
Our director, Fergus Hodgson, CAIA, grew up in New Zealand before getting to know classical-liberal thought in the United States. His work across think tanks, media, and financial research—combined with years living and traveling across the Americas—has shaped his understanding of how political and financial systems operate.
Our team also includes Paz Gómez of Ecuador—a specialist in fintech and cryptocurrencies. She is an analyst with experience in developing and restrictive economies where access to stable financial infrastructure cannot be taken for granted.
Our unique life stories provide distinct perspectives on the investment landscape. We focus on economic freedom, access beyond borders, and protection against geopolitical risk.
Our Services
Alternative investments: equity research in natural resources, cryptocurrencies, and entrepreneurship opportunities.
Cross-border strategies: expatriation pathways and regulatory arbitrage to reduce risk and expand optionality.
Economic analysis: geopolitical risk assessments, policy research, and financial publishing.
Our Offer
This publication is for individuals who are exploring alternative investments, questioning traditional financial systems, and/or seeking to operate beyond a single jurisdiction. Our work is grounded in a classical economic understanding of risk where:
control over sound money matters;
jurisdictional considerations matter akin to asset selection;
financial portability and diversification are a form of security.
Econ Americas is not for you if…
you are looking for run-of-the-mill narratives, style-over-substance hype, or passive status quo deference. There is no shortage of other publications for those.
By contrast, we aim to educate and empower our clients to pursue their financial goals on their own terms.
