ACE USA, the
U.S.-based retail operating division of the ACE Group of Companies,
is pleased to offer Episode #1 of the "Ace Global Markets Political
Risk Podcast." Increasing political unrest in emerging markets
around the world is making it more important than ever for risk
managers to conduct a thorough assessment of political risks when
considering significant investments in these markets. In this
program, we chat with Frederik Murer, Vice President and Manager,
North America, ACE Global Markets Political Risk and Credit.

1993 as a senior underwriter with the American International Group
(AIG) in AIG's New York and Chicago offices. He was also a Senior
Underwriter and Vice President in charge of Political Risk in North
America for Chubb & Son, and in 2001 became Executive Political
Risk Underwriter and Vice President for UK and Continental Europe
for Chubb Insurance Company of Europe, based in London. Before
joining ACE in 2004, he worked for Zurich Emerging Markets
Solutions (ZEMS) in London as a Senior Underwriter. Fredrik holds
