CoreLogic has appointed Garret Gray to lead its Protect Business Unit, following the company’s acquisition of Next Gear Solutions, where Gray was the founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) in 2021.
Gray’s appointment unites all of CoreLogic’s global insurance data and technology solutions as he leads the unit and his team.
The acquisition enabled CoreLogic to combine the Next Gear Solutions’ digital workflow platforms with its estimating platform, CoreLogic Claims Connect and property data and analytics, which will be offered to insurance carriers and contractors a compelling choice to transform the claims experience for policyholders.
Patrick Dodd, President and CEO said: “At CoreLogic, we view property insurance as a crucial piece of the property ownership journey which is why we have tapped Garret to lead our significant investments in this space.
“Garret and his team’s tenacity, industry knowledge and leadership will be the driving force to ensure CoreLogic is the recognised industry leader in the claims and insurance sector.
“This appointment represents a significant shift forward for not just the Protect team, but CoreLogic as a whole.”
Chuck Davis, CEO, Stone Point Capital commented: “The property insurance ecosystem deserves an innovative force with the scale and resources to realise a transformational vision.
“We have complete confidence in Garret and his team’s ability to deliver and are determined to make the investments required.”
Garret added: “CoreLogic is dedicated to our insurance and restoration customers and has made a significant investment to expand our state-of-the-art platforms and digital solutions.
“The combination of an integrated and unified business unit strategically enables us to completely re-imagine property insurance workflows and build market-driven solutions that drive even better outcomes for our customers throughout the entire property insurance lifecycle.
“I’m thrilled at the opportunity to lead this new team as we continue to innovate for restorers, insurance carriers and property owners, making good on our mission to help millions of people to protect and restore the properties they love.”
