Bob Stefanowski is an American businessman, politician, and global finance executive with over 25 years of leadership experience across private credit, structured finance, private equity, and infrastructure investing. He currently serves as Chief Financial Officer of Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company and as Managing Director of the New York City office of NEOM, the planned Saudi Arabian development owned by the Public Investment Fund, the Saudi government's sovereign wealth fund. Stefanowski has held senior leadership positions with NEOM since early 2019, initially as a consultant on a hydrogen plant venture before being formally named to head its New York office in March 2025. In the SPAC space, he served as a Director of Constellation Acquisition Corp I, as disclosed in the company's SEC S-1 filing dated March 29, 2024. He has also held board seats at Gemini Bio-Products and previously served as a Director at Quintiles.
Stefanowski's corporate career began as an auditor at PricewaterhouseCoopers in Hartford, Connecticut, after he earned a B.S. in accounting from Fairfield University in 1984. He subsequently earned an MBA from Cornell University in 1992. He joined General Electric in 1994 and spent 13 years there in multiple senior roles, including President and CEO of GE Commercial & Industrial Finance (2003) and President and CEO of GE Telecom, Media & Technology Finance (2004–2005), working out of GE Capital's headquarters in Norwalk, Connecticut. From 2008 to 2011, he served as Chairman and Managing Partner of 3i Group plc in London. He then became Chief Financial Officer of UBS, where he restructured the Investment Bank to meet Basel III regulatory requirements. From 2014 to 2017, he was CEO of Dollar Financial Group, with offices in London and Philadelphia. Stefanowski is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), a Wharton Fellow, and has taught at NYU Stern, London Business School, Cambridge University, and Oxford University. He is the author of "Making M&A Deals Happen," published in 2007.
In addition to his business career, Stefanowski is a prominent figure in Connecticut politics. He was the Republican Party nominee for Governor of Connecticut in both 2018 and 2022, losing to Democrat Ned Lamont in both elections—first by approximately 3 percentage points (roughly 40,000 votes) in 2018, and then by a wider margin in the 2022 rematch. His 2018 campaign focused on phasing out the state income tax, reducing corporate and business entity taxes, and implementing zero-based budgeting, with his tax proposals backed by economists Arthur Laffer and Larry Kudlow. He won the 2018 Republican primary with 29.4% of the vote against four competitors and received an endorsement from Donald Trump. In 2022, he selected Fairfield Representative Laura Devlin as his running mate and secured the Republican nomination at convention, but was again defeated by Lamont in the general election.
Born Robert Vincent Stefanowski on May 21, 1962, in New Haven, Connecticut, he grew up in North Haven and graduated from North Haven High School in 1980. He resides in Madison, Connecticut, with his wife, Amy, and their three daughters. Stefanowski's career has spanned corporate leadership at some of the world's largest financial and industrial institutions, international infrastructure development with NEOM, emerging digital asset treasury management with Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company, and public service as a two-time gubernatorial nominee. His diverse board experience across SPACs, biotechnology, and financial services complements a track record of restructuring and turnaround leadership at major global enterprises.
This record carries no SEC CIK. The name was read out of filing prose, so each role above is true of the filing it cites — but two people who share a name would share this page, and we cannot tell you that they do not. That is why the network below the career is withheld here: a recurrence needs an identity, and a name is not one.
Roles are the strings the filings used, in the order they were filed. Nothing on this page ranks them, infers seniority, or offers a reason why any two of these names recur — a recurrence is a count, and the filings that produced it are linked beside every row. We also hold 95 institutional-holder rows on these vehicles, under 51 distinct name strings, and none of them is counted across vehicles: that table has no CIK column, and matching holders by name would merge firms that are not the same firm.
