Bespoke is a British term for tailored clothing made at a customer's behest.  Bespoke clothing is "created without use of a pre-existing pattern, differentiating it from made to measure, which alters a standard-sized pattern to fit the customer."


Bespoke Investment Group LLC applies this same "tailored" concept to our money management and financial research services.  Unlike mutual funds and hedge funds, we offer individually managed accounts for investors looking for one-on-one, professional advisory services.  For both individuals and institutions, we also offer customized research that provides in-depth analysis in a cost efficient and timely manner through our MyBespoke service.  Bespoke's research platform enables any interested party to gain the data and knowledge necessary to make intelligent and profitable investment decisions.


Bespoke Investment Group LLC was formed in May 2007 by Paul Hickey and Justin Walters.  As illustrated by Bespoke's Think B.I.G. website, we offer some of the most original content and intuitive thinking on the Street.   For investors not looking for customized work, Bespoke also offers Bespoke Premium -- a subscription level service for investors of all types.


Bespoke Premium offers a variety of unique investment products including:


  • Model Stock Portfolios
  • Model ETF Portfolios
  • Bespoke Stock Scores
  • Market and Sector Timing Tools

About the Founders


Paul Hickey's professional experience in finance runs the spectrum of equities, fixed income, and structured products.  Most recently he served over six years as a research analyst for Birinyi Associates, Inc.  During that time he conceived and implemented in-depth and original research projects on domestic and global financial markets for institutional clients.  His reports and findings have been extensively featured in publications including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, The Financial Times, Barron's, and USA Today.  Paul frequently appears on CNBC, Bloomberg TV, and Bloomberg Radio.


Prior to Birinyi Associates, Paul was a trader for Salomon Smith Barney from 1997 to 2000, where he helped manage risk exposure and traded local market fixed income structured products for the firm´s Emerging Market Group.  During his tenure at Salomon he also worked on the restructuring of over $250 million in derivative contracts following the 1998 Russian debt default.  Paul graduated from the College of the Holy Cross in 1996 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics.


Justin Walters was a research analyst and trader at Birinyi Associates, Inc. prior to founding Bespoke Investment Group, LLC with Paul Hickey in May 2007.  Over his four year tenure with Birinyi Associates, Justin developed numerous equity trading strategies based on proprietary fundamental and technical models that he created.  His work on the underlying intraday and long-term price moves of equities and indices has been featured in multiple publications and articles, and he has made appearances on CNBC and Bloomberg TV.  Prior to his departure from Birinyi, Justin also headed the firm´s subscription level research product.  Justin graduated from Yale University in 2003 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics.


Bespoke's Premium and Think B.I.G websites have quickly become go-to research sources for the investment community.  Since launching in May 2007, Bespoke's work has been cited by hundreds of investment sources.
