Mike Weinbach, CEO, Radian

“Radian’s Board of Directors is pleased to welcome Mike to his new roles following a thoughtful and comprehensive transition process,” said Howard Culang, Non-Executive Chairperson of the Board. “Mike is an accomplished leader whose experience, strategic judgment and deep financial services expertise make him well suited to lead Radian through this next phase of growth.”

Weinbach assumes the CEO role as Radian builds momentum as a global, diversified multi-line specialty insurer, following its acquisition of Lloyd’s specialty insurer Inigo Limited, which closed on February 2, 2026, and its actions to successfully divest of its other non-core businesses. Together, its Mortgage and Specialty Insurance businesses continue to strengthen Radian’s ability to deliver long-term value.

“It is an honor to join Radian at such a pivotal and promising moment,” Weinbach said. “My confidence in the company’s future has only grown as I have spent time with our talented team and seen firsthand our differentiated approach to delivering value for customers, stockholders, and other stakeholders. Thanks to the vision and dedicated work of Rick Thornberry and the entire Radian team, I believe the company is exceptionally well-positioned for what lies ahead. I am excited to build on that strong foundation.”

“On behalf of the Board, I want to once again thank Rick for his outstanding leadership over his nine years as CEO,” said Culang. “His accomplishments and contributions will leave a lasting legacy that will benefit the company for years to come.”
