Gibraltar into Volcano. But if Policyholder Shanks is as predictable as the dawn, Prudential President Shanks is not. In the insurance industry, he has erupted with such force, in the pursuit of new ways to sell insurance and new ways to invest the Pru's billions, that he has turned the Rock of Gibraltar, the company's famed trademark, into something resembling a volcano.
