IEQ Capital Welcomes Kim Stolz as Senior Managing Director

NEW YORK, July 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- IEQ Capital ("IEQ"), an independent wealth management firm and multi-family office overseeing approximately $46.6 billion in regulatory assets under management (RAUM)¹, today announced that Kim Stolz has joined the firm as Senior Managing Director, based in New York City.

Stolz will serve ultra-high-net-worth individuals, families, business owners, executives, and institutions, providing personalized guidance across investment management, wealth planning, and long-term financial strategy.

Stolz joins IEQ from Bank of America Private Bank, where she served as Managing Director and Private Client Advisor. She led a team dedicated to helping high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth families address the complex challenges of preserving, growing, and transferring wealth. Her experience spans investment management, banking and lending solutions, trust and estate planning, tax-aware portfolio construction, and strategic planning for founders, executives, investors, and multigenerational families. In 2019, Stolz was recognized as one of Business Insider's Rising Stars of Wall Street.²

"Kim brings a combination of institutional investment expertise, leadership experience, and a deep commitment to client relationships," said Megan Whyte, Partner and Chief Client Officer at IEQ Capital. "Her experience serving sophisticated families and investors aligns closely with our approach, and we are excited to welcome her to IEQ."

Stolz's career reflects a distinctive combination of communications, capital markets, and private wealth management experience. Before entering financial services, she spent nearly five years with MTV Networks as a journalist, correspondent, and host, covering major national news events and interviewing leading political and cultural figures. She later transitioned into finance, joining BTIG and Citigroup in equity derivatives sales before beginning a 12-year tenure at Bank of America.

At Bank of America, Stolz held a series of senior leadership positions across the firm's institutional platform, including Head of EMEA Equity Derivative Hedge Fund Sales in London and Head of Americas Prime Brokerage Sales in New York. Her experience advising hedge funds, institutional investors, and market participants across global capital markets provided a foundation for her subsequent move into private wealth management, where she most recently advised some of the firm's most significant client relationships through the Private Bank.

In addition to her work in finance, Stolz is a published author and has contributed commentary on culture, technology, and social trends. She currently serves on the Board of The LGBT Center in New York City and has been actively involved throughout her career in initiatives supporting diversity, inclusion, and LGBTQ+ advocacy.

"What drew me to IEQ was the firm's commitment to independent advice and long-term client relationships," said Stolz. "I'm excited to join a team that shares my passion for helping families navigate complex financial lives with clarity and confidence."

Based in New York City and the Hamptons, Stolz's appointment reflects IEQ's continued investment in one of the firm's most important markets and reinforces its commitment to serving ultra-high-net-worth families through personalized advice, family office capabilities, and institutional-quality investment resources. In her role, Stolz will help drive the firm's continued growth and expand its presence in key markets across the country.
