OC50 2025: KIM STAFFORD

Global Head of Product Strategy
Pimco

WHY: Has held a variety of key positions, including head of Asia Pacific, global head of consultant relations, head of U.S. institutional sales and alternatives marketing teams, and global head of human resources and talent management.

NOTABLE: After being at ground zero for the COVID-19 pandemic, she closed the Hong Kong offices and advised Pimco’s top management that it was a serious issue that would take far longer than two weeks to resolve.

IN HER OWN WORDS: “I learn from our colleagues every day, and I think having the A Team makes you better.”
