A job well done
Normally I don't write editors or publishers about their journals, but I have been meaning to let the writers
and editors at benefits canada know what a great job they all do creating an interesting and informative
journal about benefits in Canada.
I am on 20 circulation lists for corporate magazines and journals, and of all of them I always look forward
to the arrival of benefits canada.
Although I've been responsible for corporate benefits in various companies for 10 years, I usually learn
new things from the articles, and what I already know is presented in an engaging manner that is always
informative. Thanks so much for a great journal. Keep up the good work.

CORRECTION
BENEFITS CANADA's 7th Annual Special Report on Custodial Services in the February 2001 issue contains an
error regarding State Street. We reported a 32.6% decrease in State Street's mutual/pooled fund assets
under custody for the year ended Sept. 30, 2000. In fact, State Street increased its assets by 32.1% during
that period.
The erroneous percentage was based on incorrect data from our 2000 survey. State Street's mutual/pooled
fund assets under custody on Sept. 30, 1999 were $84 billion--not $164.8 billion--and were $111 billion at
Sept. 30, 2000.
We want to hear from you. Please send your feedback to: Kevin Press, editor, BENEFITS CANADA, at: kpress@rmpublishing.com; fax (416) 596-5071; phone (416)
