OnDeck appointed Stephen Klimas as the company’s Head of Investor Relations. A 20-year veteran of CIT Group, Klimas will report to OnDeck Chief Financial Officer Ken Brause.
Klimas joins OnDeck from Avolon, a global commercial aircraft leasing company, where he served as managing director for Finance and Capital Markets following the company’s acquisition of CIT Aerospace in 2017. From 1998 to 2017, Klimas held several finance leadership positions at CIT Group, including senior vice president for Investor Relations, chief financial officer of the Transportation and International Finance segment and multiple management roles in the Treasury department. Klimas began his career in the Treasury division of Beneficial Management, now HSBC.
“I am thrilled that Steve is joining OnDeck to lead our investor relations program,” said Brause. “Steve is an accomplished and energetic leader who brings extensive experience in dealing with complex financial matters and interacting with both equity and fixed income investors. I’m confident he will make an immediate and meaningful contribution to OnDeck.”
