Perry Gray
"Swiss Re focuses on core business, on profitable business. If you are going to grow, to achieve targets, you have to look at your book of business. If you don't know what you are writing, you can lose money and not know that you are losing money."
"There's got to be a balance between my work and my home life. When it's time to work, I roll up my sleeves and do whatever it takes to get the job done; but when it's time to play, I like to play as well."
"It's great to work for a diverse organisation, a global organisation. Swiss Re is the number two reinsurance company in the world, and their goal is to become number one."
"I like to talk to younger people coming into the organisation, to show them the ropes, to show them the dos and the don'ts, and try to help them as much as I can, because I didn't get that type of help when I started fresh out of college."
In July 2001, Perry started work in the Aviation Team within Financial Services Business Group Risk Solutions. His new location is the Swiss Re Financial Services Corporation in New York.
