Newly named USAA Chief Risk Officer Brian Goldman

Brian joins USAA from Comerica Bank where he served as Chief Risk Officer. During his tenure, he led a comprehensive transformation of the bank’s risk function — enhancing regulatory relationships and advancing the company’s risk culture. He also played a key role in aligning risk strategy with business objectives.

Prior to Comerica, he held senior leadership roles at Goldman Sachs, where he managed risk and operations functions across the U.S. and Japan. Brian later joined Citibank, where he served in key roles in operational risk overseeing governance and control frameworks across multiple business lines.

His extensive experience in risk management has equipped him to drive comprehensive risk strategies and programs across large, multifaceted institutions.

“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 said. “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.”

Brian, a graduate of Rutgers University, has a personal connection to the military community — his grandfather served in the U.S. Army under Gen. Patton during World War II. This heritage has instilled in him a deep appreciation for the values and sacrifices of military families.

“I am honored to join USAA and be part of the mission to serve those who serve,” Brian said. “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.”
