Thomas Walek has launched Peaks Strategies, a strategic communications firm serving financial services and capital markets clients.
Peaks Strategies says its aim is to define, differentiate, promote and protect clients in a marketplace undergoing profound changes.
“Today’s clients and today’s markets demand experienced, focused communications advice and execution. Peaks Strategies will meet those demands with drive and passion,” says Walek (pictured). “From defining brand to building visibility, financial communications, transactions, product launches and managing crisis, Peaks Strategies delivers results that help clients build business.”
Peaks Strategies specialises in strategic communications for public and private companies in capital markets, alternative and traditional asset management, fintech, and financial and professional services.
Walek is an award-winning pioneer in communications for the financial services industry. In 1998 he founded Walek & Associates, a global financial and capital markets boutique serving multinational brands and emerging leaders. Walek received numerous awards and recognitions from HedgeWeek, PRWeek, O’Dwyer’s, The National Investor Relations Institute and The Hedge Fund Journal’s “Outstanding Contribution: Hedge Fund Media Communications.” Walek sold his firm in 2013 and exited the agency earlier this year.
“I’m excited to focus on the boutique service model with Peaks Strategies,” says Walek. “It’s a powerful structure for providing clients with the experience, focus and drive they deserve and the integrated communications perspective they need to prosper in today’s demanding markets.”
