Newfront, the tech-driven insurance brokerage based in San Francisco, welcomes Matt Yoder to its esteemed Executive Risk Solutions team as Midwest Leader. Yoder, named a Power Broker by Risk & Insurance, joins from Marsh.

“Matt is an accomplished leader with a stellar reputation in developing comprehensive programs and solutions for clients in the management-liability space,” said Deirdre Finn, Practice Leader of the Executive Risk Solutions (ERS) team at Newfront, a top-40 brokerage by revenue. “His guidance in overseeing our Midwest growth will greatly benefit from his rich background on the carrier and brokerage side of the business across multiple sectors.”

Yoder brings more than 20 years of experience in insurance, both as an underwriter and a broker. Most recently, Yoder was a Managing Director at Marsh, where he served as Growth Leader and a team leader in the Central Zone, focusing on the retail and agriculture industries. Previously, Yoder was in leadership roles at Aon and on the underwriting team at Chubb.

“Newfront’s talented Executive Risk Solutions team has served thousands of public and private clients at companies of all stages and I’m thrilled to add to the group’s expertise,” said Yoder, who is located in Chicago. “Combining a consultative approach, extensive carrier relationships, and revolutionary technology, the ERS team offers an unmatched experience in risk protection for business owners across all sectors.”

Yoder, who holds a Bachelor of Science in Insurance from Illinois State University, is the latest addition to the growing ERS group, which recently welcomed Jennifer Wilson as Head of Cyber, along with a host of other high profile hires at the company.
