Kauderer’s insurance experience also includes leadership. He has also held leadership roles at Bain & Company and Oliver Wyman.
Shavel commented, “We’re excited to welcome Steve to Verisk. Our clients and colleagues will immediately benefit from his more than three decades of experience advising leading global insurance carriers and brokers and partnering with executive teams to improve claims, underwriting, distribution, AI and digital enablement.
“Elizabeth brings a deep understanding of investor priorities and expectations, and as an interim president, she strengthened our strategic dialogue with clients. We are incredibly thankful for Elizabeth’s leadership over the past several months and for helping the Claims division deliver on their business priorities.”
Kauderer said, “I’m thrilled to join Verisk and the Claims Solutions team. The opportunity to work alongside talented colleagues who are passionate about making a difference for our clients and supporting how they show up for their customers when catastrophe strikes is energizing and inspiring.
“I look forward to building on Verisk’s legacy of innovation—harnessing data, technology and the collective expertise of our global team—to help our clients deliver superior claims experiences and performance.”
