COURTNEY ALTEMUS

CEO & Founder, TeamAltemus, LLC 

Courtney started TeamAltemus in 2017 to provide financial advisor due diligence and financial literacy education to athletes. After a few decades on Wall Street, first as an investment banker then private wealth manager, Courtney decided to start her own unbiased business that doesn’t manage money nor is it associated with any companies that do.

Courtney brings a unique and valuable skill set of extensive study and experience in finance (MBA Finance) and human behavior (BS Organizational Behavior Management, English minor). She believes that without being able to empathize with and understand an individual, all the financial knowledge in the world isn’t going to help that individual achieve their financial goals.

As a Director of Wealth Management, she had helped professional athletes make investment decisions for years but only after educating them extensively about finances. The endless and sad stories of athletes going broke and/or being defrauded by other investment advisors was frustrating to watch since Courtney had been able to help so many athletes avoid those pitfalls. She realized the only way to reach more athletes was to release her securities licenses and create a new space.

TeamAltemus, instead of managing assets, helps clients vet and monitor their advisors. The team also teaches financial literacy and financial advisor due diligence to collegiate student-athletes. TeamAltemus wants to change the narrative and ensure that only positive stories are associated with athletes and money.

During her investment career, Courtney worked at Barclays, Lehman Brothers, Credit Suisse and DLJ. She began her career at Wells Fargo in commercial and investment banking. She has served on the Alumni and Business Advisory Boards at La Salle University and as an advisor to the World Series of Entrepreneurship.
