About Nicholas Shimalla

Five years advising $1T+ asset managers and top U.S. banks on their most critical enterprise initiatives: AUM reporting, regulatory compliance, board governance, and operational transformation. At Alpha FMC, I lead enterprise advisory initiatives providing guidance to C-suite and investment leadership at some of the world\'s largest asset management platforms. Before that, I spent three years at NTT DATA embedded inside top U.S. banks, owning data architecture and regulatory reporting workstreams on multi-year core system transformations. Over time I\'ve developed insider knowledge of how the largest asset managers and banks actually operate, their reporting infrastructure, their regulatory constraints, and how decisions get made at the top. Triple BBA in Finance, Accounting, and MIS from the University of Georgia (3.91 GPA, Summa Cum Laude). Currently a CFA Level I candidate.
