USAA, a provider of insurance, banking, and financial services for military members and their families, has announced the appointment of Brian Goldman as its new Chief Risk Officer, effective May 27th, 2025.
With nearly 30 years of experience in global financial services, Goldman brings a strong history of building and enhancing risk management practices within complex organisations.
Most recently, Goldman served as Chief Risk Officer at Comerica Bank, where he led a broad transformation of the risk function—strengthening regulatory relationships, advancing risk culture, and aligning risk strategy with the company’s business goals.
Earlier in his career, he held senior roles at Goldman Sachs, overseeing risk and operations in both the US and Japan, and later at Citibank, where he played a key role in operational risk governance across multiple business lines.
Goldman holds a degree from Rutgers University and has a personal tie to the military community—his grandfather served under General Patton during World War II. This connection has fostered a deep respect for the service and sacrifice of military families, aligning well with USAA’s mission and values.
“Brian’s extensive expertise and leadership in risk management will be a tremendous asset as we strengthen our capabilities and continue to deliver on our mission,” USAA President and CEO Juan C. Andrade commented.
“He is the right leader to enhance our risk management culture, which is essential to safeguarding our members’ financial well-being, driving sustainable economics and delivering lasting value to members.”
“I am honoured to join USAA and be part of the mission to serve those who serve,” Goldman added. “I’m excited to build on the strong risk management foundation already in place and help USAA deliver great service and products to empower our members’ financial security.”
