In today's episode, Eric Schleien interviews Scott Thompson, Chairman & CEO of Ameritrust Group based in Tampa, Florida.
Scott Thompson, MBA, was previously managing director of Intrinsic Value Capital. Scott is a disciple of value investors Warren Buffett, Charlie Munger, Ben Graham, and Phil Fisher. Scott implements rigorous quantitative and qualitative value investing strategies, minimizes risk, and is an expert at identifying undervalued assets.
Scott graduated from Northern Illinois University in 1991 with his Bachelor of Science Degree. Then, graduated summa cum laude from Aspen University with his MBA, earning the “Graduate Student of the Year” award. After college, he worked with several Fortune-500 companies including Merrill Lynch/Bank of America and served as Vice President of an investment bank.
Like Buffett, Scott is committed to philanthropy and has donated financially as well as thousands of volunteer hours to help those in need. Scott served on numerous boards and charity organizations, including Allina Health’s “Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institute,” which is the 5th largest healthcare rehabilitation organization in the United States. He has organized and attended large charity events across the country with friend Peter Buffett (author, musician, philanthropist, and son of billionaire investor Warren Buffett).
