Demonstrates integrity, commitment and insight of the life insurance industry's best writers and editors
NEW YORK, Dec. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Summit Professional Networks' National Underwriter Life & Health magazine and its website, LifeHealthPro.com, have received the top Eddie award for Best Article, Government/Public Sector/Education, B2B during the 2013 Folio: Eddie & Ozzie Awards program for their hard-hitting report on http://www.folioawards.com/ the insolvency of the Executive Life Insurance Company of New York, which left thousands of payees finding themselves suddenly cut short by a process allowed to ramble on for more than two decades.

The top Eddie award followed two other prestigious industry awards – from the Society of American Business Editors and Writers and from the ASBPE – for the article entitled The Complete ELNY Saga: 21 Years of Mismanagement, Corruption, Broken Promises and Shattered Lives. Long remembered as one of the life industry's greatest fiascoes, the ELNY insolvency resulted in a situation in which those charged with safeguarding the public trust wasted billions of dollars, conducted themselves in a questionable manner and betrayed the very fiduciary duty they were sworn to uphold.
Group Editorial Director Bill Coffin said, "This Eddie award – the 3rd time that this ambitious piece of investigative reporting was so honored – is a testament to the integrity, commitment and industry insight of the editorial team that produced it. Day in and day out, the writers and editors at NU Life & Health and LifeHealthPro.com continue to bring the life industry the best news and analysis available, in print or online!"
