Detroit, MI.

Keith King, President of the National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC), announced today the appointment of New York financial executive Richard Swift, to the NVBDC Advisory Board.

“Rich is the next generation of leadership for the NVBDC. As we continue to build the organization, we are looking to add Veteran leaders like Rich," King said.

"As a West Point graduate, Rich has proven his leadership skills, and as a member of a successful Veteran owned business, he brings the skills we will need to continue to grow.”

"With his financial background and his New York location, Rich provides the NVBDC with Advisory Board members on both coasts," King said. "Rich will help the NVBDC with our organizational structure, and gives us the ability to reach our Iraq and Afghanistan generation Veterans."

Having earned a Masters of Business Administration in Finance at New York University, and a Bachelor of Science in Economics & Systems Engineering at West Point, Rich served as a Lieutenant in the U.S. Army in Georgia, Oklahoma and Germany.

He then went on to serve in senior positions as a financial analyst with Merrill Lynch and Red Coat Capital Management, where his responsibilities included the overseeing of over $400 million, before founding his own firm - Stadia Capital Management.

Under his management, the company grew dramatically, managing over $1 billion in assets, with Rich staying on as Managing Director once the company was acquired by Morgan Stanley.


Currently, Rich holds the title of Managing Director of Axonic Capital LLC, an investment company based in New York which was recently certified by the NVBDC.

All of this expertise represents an immense contribution to the Advisory Board of the NVBDC.


Rich Swift is looking forward to the challenge. "Keith, it’s an honor to help serve our fellow veterans with this great organization!”
