Michael Shatsky is the Founder, Managing Partner, and Chief Investment Officer of Sky Alpha Asset Advisors. He also oversees the firm’s proprietary SPX option strategy, Alpha Through Volatility (ATV).
Michael started his financial career at Smith Barney in 1993 after studying business at Florida Atlantic University. There, he focused on fixed-income solutions for high-net-worth individuals and was mentored by some of the firm’s top advisors—an experience that shaped his client-first approach and laid the groundwork for his future success.
In 1995, he started developing what would become the ATV Strategy, eventually making it the core of his wealth management practice. That dedication led to the launch of Sky Alpha 23 years later. “Our niche will continue to set us apart,” Michael notes, “especially as the industry becomes more uniform and authentic active management becomes harder to find.”
Outside of work, Michael enjoys spending quality time with his 11-year-old daughter. They like going to the beach, playing sports, watching movies, and traveling together. A passionate golfer, he’s a proud member of Adios Golf Club, one of South Florida’s most exclusive clubs.
