TowerGroup conference slated for May 31-June 2

March 28, 2006

NEEDHAM, Mass. - The theme of TowerGroup's May 31-June 2, 2006, Financial Services Business & Technology Conference and Exhibition is "Differentiation - Execution - Results." The conference, recognized as one of the top venues for delivering in-depth perspectives on the issues facing the global financial services industry, is held in Boston.

TowerGroup president and chief executive, Karen Cone, said the 2006 theme addresses the need for global institutions to more clearly differentiate themselves through innovation in an increasingly competitive and commoditized financial services landscape.

"Consumers of financial products and services, whether retail or commercial, today face an overwhelming array of choice and channels," Cone said. "All participants in the global financial services marketplace are challenged to differentiate themselves on an increasingly crowded field occupied by both traditional and non-traditional players."

The conference includes sessions led by featured guest speakers and TowerGroup analysts. Sessions are organized under five tracks: Banking & Payments; Cross-Industry; Diversified Financial Services; Insurance; and Securities & Investments.

The event also features an exhibition of industry-leading technology companies and solutions providers.
