As Group Head, ATB Business and Wealth, Chris Turchansky leads teams who support clients in business, corporate banking, capital markets and wealth. He understands the need to put the client at the centre of everything we do at ATB and that an exceptional client experience begins with exceptional team members who take the time to engage clients with intense curiosity, serve them with deep expertise, build trust and deliver value.
Chris’ 25-year financial career has been fuelled by a passion for providing clients with advice and solutions fostered through a deep level of engagement. Prior to his current role, his journey at ATB has allowed him to connect with clients across several positions, from the President of ATB Wealth to the Chief Experience Officer.
Having grown up in a small Alberta town, Chris understands and appreciates the province’s strong sense of community, and he draws on that life experience to help team members come together. Being Métis, he hopes to continue to promote and support public and private sector partnerships that will improve the economic circumstances and quality of life for all Indigenous people.
Chris holds a Commerce degree from the University of Alberta, an MBA from Athabasca University, a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation and an Accredited Investment Fiduciary (AIF). He is also on the board of the Hockey Alberta Foundation.
