About Andy Schectman
Andy Schectman is the Founder and CEO of Miles Franklin Precious Metals, a company he launched with David Schectman in 1989 with a commitment to transparency, ethics, and long-term wealth preservation. Over the past three decades, he has become one of the most recognized voices in the precious metals and macroeconomic space, helping clients navigate inflation, currency debasement, geopolitical uncertainty, and systemic financial risk through physical gold and silver ownership.
Before founding Miles Franklin, Andy began his career as a Licensed Financial Planner specializing in Swiss Franc investments and alternative asset strategies. That early focus on monetary stability and hard assets laid the foundation for what would become one of the most respected precious metals firms in North America. Under his leadership, Miles Franklin has surpassed $12 billion in sales without a single formal customer complaint – a reflection of the company’s customer-first philosophy and longstanding reputation for integrity.
Andy is widely known for his deep expertise in gold and silver markets, including physical supply and demand dynamics, COMEX activity, central bank accumulation, and the growing disconnect between paper and physical markets. He is also a leading voice on de-dollarization, BRICS developments, Treasury market stress, and the broader shift toward a multipolar financial system. His ability to break down complex macroeconomic trends into clear, actionable insights has made him a trusted resource for investors, entrepreneurs, and audiences seeking perspective beyond mainstream financial narratives.
A frequent guest across major financial and alternative media platforms, Andy has appeared on programs including The Solari Report with Catherine Austin Fitts, Liberty & Finance, The Mark Moss Show, David Lin Report, Kinesis Money, Soar Financially, Investing News, Adam Taggart, Gareth Soloway, Jim Ferguson, Kitco News, and many others. His interviews consistently generate strong engagement due to his direct, no-nonsense communication style and grounded understanding of the global financial system.
Andy is also the host of Little by Little with Andy Schectman, part of Miles Franklin Media. The show explores sound money, gold and silver, wealth preservation, and the deeper structural shifts reshaping the global economy. Through interviews and commentary, Andy delivers unfiltered financial insights that go beyond the headlines, challenge conventional thinking, and help audiences better understand the forces driving markets today.
In addition to his media work, Andy is a sought-after speaker at major investment and resource conferences across North America, including the Rick Rule Investment Symposium, VRIC, and other leading industry events focused on macroeconomics, mining, precious metals, and global monetary trends.
Given today’s economic backdrop – rising sovereign debt levels, persistent inflationary pressures, Treasury market volatility, and growing questions surrounding the future of the U.S. dollar – Andy continues to provide audiences with a rare insider perspective on wealth preservation, systemic risk, and the evolving role of gold and silver in the global financial system.
