Guiding You Toward a
Smarter Financial Future
About Us
The Venerables is an independent investment advisory practice founded by Martin Filkuka. At the heart of our philosophy lies a simple yet powerful idea: capital should not only serve the individual, but also contribute to something greater. Therefore, we believe that investing is more than a means to accumulate wealth – when managed with discipline, it can help preserve capital, unlock opportunities, and support thoughtful, well-informed decisions aligned with long-term goals.
We focus on publicly traded securities and the construction of concentrated, fundamentally driven portfolios. Our objective is to identify companies that offer significant products or services, demonstrate strong fundamentals, possess a competitive advantage and are led by effective management teams. We focus on constructing high-conviction portfolios with a medium to long-term investment horizon. While our approach is primarily long term, we remain prepared to act on shorter-term opportunities that meet our standards of quality and conviction.
In the end, it’s not only about growing capital—it’s about what that capital allows you to do. We believe that well-managed finances create peace of mind, greater freedom of choice, and the ability to focus on what truly matters. Our role is to help you build that foundation.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Martin Filkuka
My name is Martin Filkuka, and I am the founder of The Venerables. I hold a degree in economics from a university in Brno, Czech Republic, and finance and investing have been areas of deep interest to me since my university years. Over time, I have developed a strong academic foundation as well as a practical understanding of how economic and market forces influence investor decision-making.
I began investing with my own capital, focusing primarily on equity markets and identifying businesses with long-term growth potential. As my knowledge and experience grew, I began offering guidance to individuals seeking a more structured and informed approach to managing their assets.
Today, I am dedicated not only to providing investment advisory services but also to designing and managing tailored investment portfolios for individual clients. I also manage a privately structured investment solution, based on a long-term philosophy centered around quality companies, solid fundamentals, and a disciplined approach to risk.
My goal is to help clients navigate the investment landscape with clarity, understand the opportunities available to them, and build strategies that align with their personal objectives and values. I believe investing is not only a way to grow wealth, but also a path toward greater financial confidence and a deeper understanding of the world we live in.
Ultimately, I see the ability to generate and grow capital not just as a personal privilege, but also as an opportunity a way to contribute more meaningfully to the lives of others, to support causes and communities in need, and to participate in shaping a more thoughtful and equitable society.
Individual Pricing Calculation
Every client has different needs, goals, and scope of collaboration, which is why we don’t offer a fixed price list. The cost of our services depends on several factors. The first is the complexity of your financial situation, such as the number of assets or specific requirements. Another factor is the scope of services you require, whether it’s a one-time consultation or a long-term partnership. Finally, the cost is influenced by the time needed to develop and implement your investment strategy.
Before we begin our collaboration, we will always provide a clear cost estimate tailored specifically to your needs. Our pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees or unpleasant surprises.
