Former USAA chief brings digital transformation and operational expertise as Cotality scales data, analytics, and AI capabilities

Property information, analytics, and data-enabled solutions provider Cotality has appointed Wayne Peacock, former president and CEO of USAA, as an independent member of its board of directors.

Peacock spent 36 years at USAA, including five years as chief executive officer of the Fortune 100 financial services association that serves more than 14 million members across banking, insurance, investment, and retirement solutions.

During his tenure, he led the organization through significant digital transformation, operational modernization, and periods of economic disruption, earning recognition for his focus on customer experience innovation and operational excellence.

In announcing the appointment, Patrick L. Dodd, president and CEO of Cotality, formed from the rebranding of CoreLogic, highlighted Peacock’s extensive experience guiding complex organizations through technological and market shifts.

“Wayne’s depth of experience and his track record leading teams through technology transformation in complex industries will be a strong addition to our board,” said Dodd. “As data, analytics, and AI continue to reshape housing, insurance, and capital markets, his expertise and support will accelerate Cotality’s continued growth and long-term strategic priorities.”

Peacock said he is enthusiastic about joining Cotality’s board at a time when data and technology are becoming central to decision-making in housing and insurance.

“Throughout my career, I’ve led organizations where customer trust, operational discipline, and financial strength were inseparable,” Peacock said. “Housing and insurance decisions are among the most important financial choices individuals and institutions make. As data and technology play an increasingly significant role in those decisions, Cotality has the opportunity and responsibility to deliver clarity, resilience, and long-term value. I look forward to contributing to the board as Cotality continues to scale and advances through this exciting next phase of its growth.” 

Alongside Peacock’s board role, he holds leadership and advisory positions with other industry organizations, including roles at HUB International Limited and nonprofit groups focused on military caregivers and leadership development.
