Radian Recognized as a “Champion of Board Diversity” by Forum of Executive Women for Second Consecutive Year

Radian Group Inc. (NYSE: RDN) today announced that it has been named a Champion of Board Diversity for the second year in a row by the Forum of Executive Women, a leading organization focused on the advancement of women in the Greater Philadelphia business community. The organization’s annual Champions of Board Diversity list recognizes major Philadelphia-area companies that have 30 percent or greater female representation on their boards of directors.

“Diversity in the boardroom, and at all levels of the organization, encourages engagement and challenges conventions, which we believe is essential to our success,” said Chief Executive Officer Rick Thornberry. “Our board reflects our team whose diverse talents and perspectives come together to deliver innovative solutions and meaningful results for our customers, our employees and our company. As one of only 35 public companies in the Greater Philadelphia Region to have at least 30 percent women on our Board, we are honored to receive this meaningful recognition once again as it is a testament to our progress in fostering diversity at all levels.”
