Biography
Alfred West oversees SEI, the $2 billion (revenue) financial services firm he founded in 1968.
SEI, which stands for Simulated Environments Inc., first developed a computer program to train loan officers by simulating a lending environment.
West took SEI public in 1981 and branched out into investment advisory and money management.
He retired as CEO in 2022, after more than 50 years at the helm. He's now executive chairman.
About
West dreamed of becoming a fighter pilot when he was younger and studied aerospace engineering at Georgia Tech.
He didn't qualify to fly due to poor eyesight, so he got an MBA at Wharton instead and then launched SEI.
