Company will launch its live news network in the fall of 2009

The Insurance Broadcast System (IBS) has resumed broadcasting its business-to-business insurance and financial services video news network on www.IBSNewsDirect.com.

The company has stated to launch its live news network in the fall of 2009. It will specialise in news serving for more than 3.5 million people in the US, Canada and the UK.

The website is expected to provide late-breaking news reported by a team of insurance correspondents. According to IBS, newscasts will initially stream on a weekly basis and then grow to five days per week. Besides late-breaking news, regular programming will feature round-table industry issue discussions and interviews, said the company.

Dennis Richard, Chairman and CEO of IBS, said: “We have put in place a global team of correspondents and journalists to report on worldwide news that affects the healthcare, commercial insurance and financial services industries.”

The newscast would include segments integrated from London, New York, and Washington, DC.
