ALBERTO THOMAS
Founding Partner
As a global economic consulting firm, Fideres delivers effective economic analysis and testimony, turning data into courtroom advantage. We help law firms secure new cases and offer unbiased, conflict-free insights for complex and innovative disputes. Driven by rigorous analysis, we empower justice—for all—from case strategy to victory.
Fideres was founded in 2009 in the wake of the financial crisis. Our founders Steffen Hennig and Alberto Thomas leveraged their expertise as fixed-income professionals to establish Fideres with a clear purpose: to analyze and identify potential irregularities in corporate and financial activities.
This mission led to our innovative approach: creating a new model of economic consulting focused exclusively on litigation. This specialization allows us to maintain independence and operate free from the conflicts of interest that can affect firms serving both corporate and litigation clients. By dedicating ourselves solely to litigation-based economic analysis, we can provide truly unbiased assessments and maintain our commitment to objectivity.
Our work focuses on providing economic analysis that reveals market patterns and behaviors that may disadvantage market participants. We present this evidence-based analysis to law firms and regulators, offering methodologically rigorous solutions to complex economic questions arising during litigation. Our approach combines technical precision with our foundational commitment to fairness and market integrity.
Fideres’s aim is to support our clients to achieve fair outcomes. We believe that the modern financial world is dominated by asymmetry of information and resources: larger financial institutions often have an unfair access to resources and knowledge which makes it difficult for smaller players to achieve a fair outcome in critical situations. We aim to create a level playing field for our clients
Our experience has taught us that bringing a new perspective to problems often generates innovative solutions. We foster a culture of creativity by also putting together a diverse team that brings together a wealth of different cultural and professional backgrounds. We incentivise the exchange of views and experiences within the company and with external organisations. We embrace new technologies in every aspect of our business.
We aim to provide advice which is simple, to the point, clear and transparent. We provide opinions which are direct and which truly reflect our experience, our results and our beliefs.
We aim to deliver precise, robust and rigorous advice. We apply with discipline our methodologies paying attention to detail in the content as well as in the form of our reports. We respect the principles, rules and regulations we are subject to.
