Katharine Firth Joins iMoneyNet Sales Team in Europe



    Katharine Firth has joined money-market mutual fund data company
    iMoneyNet as European sales representative, based in London.

    In announcing the appointment, iMoneyNet sales director Kevin
    Grist said, "We are delighted that Katharine has joined our sales team
    and expect that she will help us achieve our growth objectives, as
    investors in the U.K and elsewhere in Europe move from using bank
    accounts to triple-A-rated U.S. dollar, euro or sterling-denominated
    money-market funds for cash management."

    Ms. Firth, a Manchester University graduate, has worked in the
    financial sector for more than 10 years and arrives at iMoneyNet from
    Reed Elsevier's LexisNexis Butterworths, where she was a strategic
    account manager and worked with clients that included retail and
    investment banks, large corporations and big law firms. Previously,
    she helped launch SSISearch, an online directory used by international
    trading banks to find authenticated trading information, while serving
    as an international account manager at Reed Business Information.

    Grist said that one of her key objectives will be to transition
    existing customers of the Offshore Money Fund Vision(TM) database
    software product to the soon-to-launch Web-based offshore version of
    Money Fund Analyzer(TM).

    Analyzer is a fully-hosted and powerful query tool that produces
    custom reports, such as peer-to-peer analysis, to support performance
    reviews and research or marketing efforts by clients at banks, mutual
    fund companies, insurance firms and corporate treasury departments.

    Ms. Firth may be contacted by telephone at +44 (20) 701 77962. Her
    e-mail address is: kfirth@imoneynet.com.
