Earning his Masters of Business Administration in 1981, Todd Richter

at Indiana University. In the 20 years that followed, Richter gained
immense success as one of Wall Street’s leading analysts in the
healthcare field. He currently serves as managing director within the
global healthcare investment banking group at Bank of America. Recently,
Richter turned his decades of success into a growth opportunity for
students, staff and more at the Kelley School; he created a $5 million
endowment that directly supports educational endeavors within the
financial industry at the institution.

the endowment supports additional requests that fall within the four
previously mentioned funding streams, as long as bequest dollars remain.
