Leadership Spotlight: Steven Kauderer
Most recently, Kauderer was a senior partner at EY-Parthenon, where he built and led Enterprise Reimagined, the firm’s transformation practice that helps financial services organizations, including insurers, increase value and drive profitable growth. Prior to that role, he was a senior partner at McKinsey and Company, serving as a leader in the global insurance practice with an emphasis on property and casualty and life insurance. Kauderer’s insurance experience also includes leadership roles at Bain & Company and Oliver Wyman.
He holds a bachelor’s degree in American Studies from Vassar College and an MBA from Yale University.

Verisk Chief Financial Officer Elizabeth Mann had been serving dual roles as interim president of Claims Solutions and CFO since July 2025. With Kauderer on board, she will continue in her role as CFO.
