“Over the past few years, Prudential has evolved its business mix and operating model to become a higher growth, more Capital efficient company.”
“We started by delivering burial insurance to working-class families who couldn't afford it. That was our only business, and over the years we've morphed and evolved and changed as our customers have changed both in the United States and now all over the world.”
“I am extraordinarily confident. I think transitions best occur when two things happen simultaneously: one, the old leadership team provides a really strong foundation for the new team, and two, there's an amazing number of opportunities ahead.”
