USAA has announced Juan C. Andrade as its next president and CEO, effective April 2, 2025. With nearly forty years of experience spanning financial services and public service, Andrade’s appointment marks a significant moment for the 102-year-old organization dedicated to serving the military community and their families.
A member of USAA’s Board of Directors since 2019, Andrade has played a key role in shaping the association’s strategies in risk management, financial services, and technology. As a USAA member himself, he brings a unique perspective to the organization, having directly experienced its member-centric solutions.
Andrade’s impressive career includes his most recent role as president and CEO of Everest Group Ltd., a global leader in insurance and reinsurance. At Everest, he spearheaded efforts to diversify operations, enhance profitability, and strengthen innovation through technology and data-driven insights. Prior to Everest, Andrade held leadership positions at Chubb, the Hartford, and Progressive, consistently building high-performing teams and delivering strong business outcomes.
His early career in public service included roles in national security and international affairs, where he worked alongside the US military and earned the Secretary of Defense Medal for Meritorious Civilian Service. This deep respect for the military community aligns seamlessly with USAA’s mission.
In a statement, Andrade expressed his enthusiasm for the role: “I’m excited to build upon USAA’s legacy and continue innovating to help more military families achieve financial security. It’s an honor to lead an organization so dedicated to serving our courageous service men and women.”
Andrade succeeds Wayne Peacock, who is retiring after thirty-six years with USAA, including four as CEO. Under Peacock’s leadership, USAA advanced its commitment to the military community while fostering a culture of service and innovation.
As Andrade steps into this role, his vision and leadership promise to guide USAA into its next century of service, further strengthening its impact on the military families it serves.
