ARC Risk Management Group Plc

Distribution Agreement in Japan via AIG International Services

ARC Risk Management Group Plc ('ARC') announces that its distribution partner
for Japan, AIG International Services (a division of American International
Group Inc), has secured agreement with JTB and JI Accident & Fire Insurance Co
for the immediate sale of the red24alert crisis response service to their
customer bases.

JTB is the largest travel agency in Japan and has 400 offices in 22 countries.
Initially, however, red24 will be sold into the domestic market through JTB's
network of 321 branches, 414 sub-agencies and 6,819 affiliated agencies which
combined accounts for some four million foreign holiday makers a year.

JI Accident & Fire Insurance Co is a joint venture between AIU and JTB one of
the largest insurance companies in Japan and has incorporated red24alert into
its product offering specifically to customers seeking protection when
travelling abroad. JI is expected to provide red24alert as a mandatory service
to some of its customers and as a voluntary add-on to others.

ARC is hopeful that the Japanese market will prove a rich one for red24alert
and that the traditionally risk averse Japanese traveller will lead to the
rapid adoption of the product.

Simon Wakeling, Director, ARC Risk Management Group Plc, commented:

'This is an exciting development for red24 taking us into a major geographical
region populated by prolific travellers who seek security and safety. Both JTB
and JI are confident that red24alert suits a necessary market need and will
commence product marketing immediately.'

ARC RISK MANAGEMENT GROUP PLC

Customer Agreement

Launch of red24alert and Identity Theft Assistance Services for Hiscox Plc
Policyholders

Arc Risk Management Group Plc announces a further agreement with its existing
client, Hiscox Plc, to provide Hiscox Direct policyholders with the red24alert
service, offering them and their immediate families access to a free
on-the-ground response service from red24 in the event of their suffering a
life-threatening security incident, whether at home or abroad.

The agreement also sees Hiscox Direct policyholders and their immediate
families automatically become members of red24's Identity Theft Assistance
services, in response to the rising number of incidents of identity theft in
the UK. Since January 2004 Hiscox has been providing all of its home insurance
policyholders with free direct access to the standard red24 service, offering
safety and security advice.

The service will be available to new and existing customers from 1 December, to
coincide with the start of the Christmas period when the risks of fraud are
heightened.

Identity theft occurs when an individual's personal details are replicated
fraudulently to open bank accounts, obtain credit cards, loans, state benefits
and documents such as passports and driving licenses. Last year, 135,000 people
were victims of the crime, compared to just 20,000 in 1999. Overall, identity
theft costs the British economy over 1.3 billion annually.

Kevin Kerridge, Head of Direct Business, Hiscox commented:

'Identity theft is invasive, distressing and increasingly common. It can affect
anyone, and can take months or even years to unravel without dedicated
professional help. The new service is designed to both alleviate worries over
falling victim to identity theft and provide rapid assistance to minimise the
impact on a victim's circumstances.'

Simon Wakeling, Director, Arc Risk Management plc, commented:

'Hiscox policyholders can take comfort through the comprehensive protection
afforded by red24's membership services. As a result of this and other
agreements with global companies in the financial services industry, we are
witnessing significant growth in our membership base and look forward to
announcing further developments in the coming months.'

Even more good news...
This share has got to start moving up.... must be due a substantial re rating?

('ARC Risk Management' or the 'Company')

Director Shareholding

ARC Risk Management has been notified today that Financial and General
Securities Limited yesterday purchased 5,000,000 shares in the Company at 0.7p
each. The Company's Chairman, Simon Richards, is a director and shareholder of
Financial and General Securities Limited and following yesterday's purchase
Simon Richards is now beneficially interested in 60,142,500 ordinary shares in
ARC Risk Management, representing 19.8% of the issued share capital.

Not sure if this is good or not but...
.
HB has a mixed reputation however, I would think this is a good sign that HB sees ARC as a good company to make money out of...better to be in at ground level along with HB so I'm staying in... think there's only one way this is going now... and that's up !

ARC Risk Management Group Plc

Change of Adviser

The Directors of ARC Risk Management Group Plc ("ARC") have pleasure in
announcing that HB Corporate, a division of Hoodless Brennan Plc, has been
appointed as the Company's Nominated Adviser and Broker with immediate effect.

RNS says change of adviser:HB: That can only mean one thing This co is going to be sold or a Bid is on the cards ?

This may be right..I don't really know what to think any more.

However, I think it's more likely that HB are still left with alot of the 36m shares it bought a few weeks ago. They couldn't get rid of them so they have to drop the offer to generate interest.. We'll likely see big buys coming in later today and early next week.
The people who bought in on the recommendation of HB at .09-.095p over the past few weeks have been shafted as I was 2/3 yrs ago when HB advised me then that this was a sure fire one way bet up.. (@1.9p)... so I've been well shafted by HB ! (I've since learnt my lesson...never again!)

Our only hope now is that the company is in good shape and making profits and good things will be revealed when the results are released in about 6/8 weeks time. (Like good profits, new contracts, new products and that there is good press coverage and "buy" recommendations etc.,)

Here's hoping !.... (remember, it's always darkest just before the dawn)

last year, the results were released Fri 3rd June. That means results could be released tomorrow ?

Results should be good. increased t/o, reduced losses, now making a profit etc.,
Hope there's no nasty surprises.... the only fly in the ointment could be the training division where the first half was poor and they were hoping to make this up in the second half.

Any idea on when results will be out? Anyone. Delayed results normally spells bad news.

The results can't be far away..in the next week or two I reckon... and yes... there may be bad news...re: the training div. if it hasn't caught in the 2nd half.
I have to say that I agree that delayed results usually mean bad news and they may be hanging on to announce new deals/contracts at the same time to offset the bad news...

Let's hope overall it's OK...

How many ARC do you hold and for how long ?
I have 50k from 2/3 yrs ago @ 1.9p and 20k from 6 mnths ago at .0094p

Now is the time for ARC to start to deliver!
