The change of name had been adopted with a large majority at the company's last annual general meeting at the end of June this year. The company's previous stock-market ticker symbol ('FJH') will shortly be changed to 'MSGL'. The company also intends to extend its new name to msg life ag's European subsidiaries as far as possible. The intention in taking this step is to signalise clearly, also to the outside world, msg life ag's affiliation to the msg Group and the increasingly close collaboration within an even larger and commercially more effective group of companies that will result. Since its successful strategic realignment in the financial year ended, msg life in Europe has been concentrating on its core business concerning all aspects of the development and implementation of standard software solutions and specialist advice. The target groups of these activities are life insurance companies, providers of private old-age provision schemes and, in the US market, healthcare insurance companies.

As the largest company in this successful group, msg life will become a partner of even greater strategic importance for its customers and an even more attractive employer for its staff. Apart from that, msg life's Management Board is convinced that by taking this step, it will be able to offer the company and its shareholders long-term income potential that considerably exceeds the current possibilities.
