Robert Adam Mosbacher Jr. (born May 29, 1951) is an American businessman, founder of BizCorps, and the former head of the Overseas Private Investment Corporation (OPIC).

[4] His uncle was Emil Mosbacher, a two-time America's Cup Winner and former Chief of Protocol for President Richard Nixon.

Mosbacher was appointed by President Reagan to three successive Presidential Task Forces on Private Sector Initiatives during the 1980s.

Mosbacher faced controversy in the campaign, as he had lived outside Houston in West University Place for eleven years and professed interest in federal and state issues, rather than local concerns.

[6] In a notable event, Karl Rove was fired from the 1992 Bush campaign for planting a negative story about Mosbacher with the columnist Robert Novak.
