Matthias Weik is a sought-after speaker at expert lectures, congresses, panel discussions, and a guest on radio and television due to his five bestsellers and his consistently pointed and critical analyses of the financial and economic world. In his guest articles, columns, and interviews – whether in Focus, SPIEGEL, or Handelsblatt – the broad audience receives fact-based and understandable analyses. Outlandish theses, shaky forecasts, and flowery promises are far from Matthias Weik’s approach. He is known as an author and speaker for speaking plainly and getting to the point. Flattery is not his style. Matthias Weik does not consider himself a pessimist, optimist, or alarmist, but rather a realist who points out the potential dangers for your business or personal investment.
