Equity ownership increased by more than 7 percent over the three-year
period from January 1999 to January 2002, according to a new report from
the Investment Company Institute (ICI)* and the Securities Industry Association
(SIA)*. Financial services experts credit employers for expanding the

Matthew P. Fink and SIA President Marc E. Lackritz are both members of
the ACCFs
board of directors.
