AUSTIN - For the second year in a
row the Texas Department of Insurance's (TDI)
Licensing Division has been recognized for its
outstanding performance by the Securities and
Insurance Licensing Association (SILA). The
professional organization named TDI's Deputy
Commissioner of Licensing Matt Ray as its
Financial Services Regulator of the Year.
Ray was selected as the recipient of the Warren

Florida earlier this year. The award recognizes
a state insurance licensing director who
demonstrates a special ability and outstanding

As one of the nominating parties noted: "The
efficiency and speed of the Texas Department of
Insurance Licensing Department under Ray's
direction should serve as an example for other
state regulators."
"I am honored to receive this award and of
course, I am very proud of the work of the
entire Licensing Division," said Ray. "I believe
the hard work of the Licensing staff is making a
difference for Texas and the industry is
recognizing that work with this award."

inaugural award for being the Best Regulatory
