ADVISEN LAUNCHES GLOBAL EDITION OF POPULAR FRONT PAGE NEWS SERVICE

FPN Global Announced at FERMA Risk Management Forum 2005

NEW YORK, October 3, 2005 – Advisen Ltd., the leading provider of analytics, benchmarking and market information to the global commercial insurance industry, today announced the launch of FPN Global, an international version of the company’s comprehensive Front Page News (FPN) daily e-news service.

Advisen launched the first edition of FPN in 2002 in response to customer requests for a morning digest of the industry’s top stories edited by the company’s news staff from over 9,000 wire stories available daily in the Advisen system. Since its introduction, FPN has become the pre-eminent news vehicle for over 30,000 Risk Managers, Retail & Wholesale Brokers and Underwriters, featuring the 15 most relevant headlines and stories every business day.

Covering the top stories from around the world, FPN Global will be a free service and will follow the same format as its U.S. counterpart: an English-language daily news service offering subscribers an executive briefing of the most important commercial insurance industry news articles of the day, hand-picked from international, national and local news services around the globe, as well as original news content from Advisen’s editors.

“With today's evolving commercial insurance markets, staying current on the latest news and developments is essential to the bottom line,” said Tom Ruggieri, CEO of Advisen. ”FPN and FPN Global are indispensable tools that provide this competitive advantage in an easily digestible format. Now professionals around the world can choose the version which best suits their needs. I am pleased to be at FERMA to present the Advisen platform and introduce FPN Global to European insurance professionals."
