Announcing some New Year changes at FAnews Online

We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a positive and successful 2007. We trust you've enjoyed a well-deserved break over the summer holiday season and are ready for any challenges the New Year may bring.

We begin 2007 by saying goodbye to our online editor, Angelo Coppola. Angelo has been with FAnews Online since its inception some four years ago, and has made a substantial contribution to the online business in that time. Angelo will be leaving to pursue other business interests and we wish him the best of luck in his new endeavours.

To ensure that you enjoy the quality service you're accustomed to, we've recruited a new editor who will take over from Angelo to produce the FAnews Online newsletter and other articles.

We'd like to welcome Gareth Stokes to the FAnews Online team. Gareth has a strong background in the field of finance and investment and has written for and edited a number of monthly financial publications. He has also contributed to a number of electronic newsletters covering basic investment knowledge and economic opinion. Gareth is the author of a book on the basics of stock market investing.

Gareth will be responsible for the FAnews Online newsletter, which he will produce to comply with the existing mandate. He will ensure that you receive up to date news and commentary on developments in the fields of insurance (short-term and life), healthcare, tax and investing. You will continue to benefit from our newsletter articles and the comprehensive FAnews Online facilities.

In conclusion, the staff at FAnews Online are looking forward to a fantastic 2007. Given the outlook for business in South Africa in the run-up to the 2010 Soccer World Cup we're confident FAnews Online will grow from strength to strength in the coming year.

And we hope you grow with us every step of the way.
