UBS launched its Athletes and Entertainers Strategic Client Segment in 2019, to provide holistic financial advice and guidance to clients across sports and entertainment industries. The segment is led by former professional football player, Adewale (“Wale”) Ogunleye, who works to deliver the best advice and guidance the firm has to offer to athletes and entertainers through a select group of Financial Advisors dedicated to serving their complex and unique needs. Sherry is one of 30 advisors at the firm in the US to receive the AEC designation.

We are amidst an exciting and pivotal time in sports and entertainment, so it’s crucial that seasoned and focused experts like Sherry help athletes and entertainers navigate the unknowns and intricate challenges that come with being a professional athlete,” said Wale. “It’s great that Sherry has received her AEC Designation. The value and insight she’s provided over the years to professional athletes and entertainers alongside her understanding of the industry, will be extremely beneficial to our clients.”
