The following is a list of characters that first appeared on the soap opera in 2017, by order of first appearance. All characters are introduced by executive producer Mal Young and co-executive producer/head writer Sally Sussman.[1][2] In October 2017, Sussman departed as co-executive producer and head writer; Young remained as executive producer and was promoted as head writer.[3][4][5][6]

Benjamin Hochman

Benjamin Hochman, portrayed by Ben Hermes, is introduced in January 2017 as a recently divorced billionaire corporate raider and financier from Chicago with a reputation for having dismantled nationwide department stores. He met with Lauren Fenmore hoping to invest in her company but Lauren's mother-in-law Gloria Abbott Bardwell interfered and stopped the deal. He appeared in April when he encountered Ashley Abbott and Ravi Shapur in New York City where he attempted a romance with Ashley but she resisted and Ravi defended Ashley and both left with a low opinion of Hochman.

Hochmnan returned to Genoa City in August 2017 looking for new investment opportunities and unexpectedly began a professional and personal relationship with Victoria Newman. He entered into a secret business alliance with Jack Abbott and Phyllis Summers to take down Victoria's company Brash & Sassy. The venture was successful at first despite many people warning Victoria not to trust or do business with Hochman but she ignored the warnings due to her company's dire financial situation. Jack raised the rent on Brash & Sassy 25% and secretly told Hochman to get Victoria to sign a bridge loan agreement with Hochman that would end Brash & Sassy and thus eliminate Jack's major competitor. Initially ready to sign Victoria tore up the contract when she discovered Hochman had a meeting with her former employee Cane Ashby and ended their professional and personal relationship. Hilary Curtis clandestinely taped Hochman and Victoria as they discussed their past business and personal matters and aired the footage on her show The Hilary Hour.
