Napolitano as the company’s first Chief Risk Officer (CRO), a newly created role designed to elevate and unify risk management capabilities enterprise-wide. This appointment reflects the company’s proactive approach to risk and supports its strategic priorities for 2026 and beyond.

In this role, Napolitano will oversee Mitsubishi HC Capital America’s risk management framework, spanning the enterprise’s financial and non-financial risks and strengthening the company’s ability to serve clients with targeted financing solutions.

Napolitano brings more than two decades of leadership experience across major financial institutions. Most recently, he served as Chief Model Risk Officer at Bank of New York Mellon, where he built the model risk function from the ground up, led global teams, and partnered closely with regulators and board governance structures.
