Background

About Stephen Gilmore

Accomplished capital markets and treasury executive with 30 years of progressive leadership in healthcare finance, spanning debt management, equipment leasing, capital markets strategy, and treasury operations. I bring a unique perspective shaped by experience on both the issuer and municipal underwriter sides of the table. At Ascension Health Alliance, I’ve led centralized debt financing and leasing efforts for one of the nation’s largest not-for-profit health systems—managing a $6+ billion program and serving as a primary deal team member on over $29 billion in healthcare financing transactions, including taxable and tax-exempt bonds, commercial paper, and private placements. Passionate about innovation, I’ve partnered with internal data scientists to design and test generative AI tools for various practical treasury and general finance use cases. This work has enhanced team workflows and informed solution development across finance. Known as a clear communicator and trusted advisor, I thrive at the intersection of strategic vision and detailed execution, and value collaboration at every level of a complex organization.
