CIC's eSignature Solutions Passes LIDMA Inspections by Meeting All Essential & Critical Requirements for the Insurance Industry

REDWOOD SHORES, Calif. - Communication Intelligence Corporation ("CIC") (OTC Bulletin Board: CICI), the leading supplier of electronic signature solutions for business process automation in the financial industry and the recognized leader in biometric signature verification, announced today that its eSignature solutions have been awarded the prestigious eSignature Seal of Approval from the Life Insurance Direct Marketing Association (LIDMA) at the 7th annual Fall Meeting & Showcase held at the Four Seasons Hotel in Seattle.

CIC's eSignature is part of LIDMA's eProcess Flow Initiatives which is being adopted throughout the industry helping insurers improve efficiency and reduce net operating cost. The key challenge facing insurers today is achieving cost effective sales growth in the face of a constricted economy. Leveraging CIC's electronic signature has emerged as the key enabler in achieving that objective. According to a recent Gartner study an estimated 75 to 100 life and P&C insurers are currently pursuing eSignature based deployments. In addition, Gartner recommends that insurers focus on eSignature vendors who possess core infrastructure and workflow knowledge.

"Each year our Fall Meeting & Showcase provides LIDMA members with the most efficient and cost effective ways members can serve their current clients and bring life insurance solutions to new policy holders," said Pat Wedeking, President of LIDMA. "Through its participation in LIDMA and our Fall Meeting & Showcase, Communication Intelligence Corporation proved that it is among the elite insurance solution providers in our industry."

"We are pleased with the increasing recognition by insurers that eSignature technology provides the solutions to the challenges they face and that analysts are acknowledging and recommending the key factors that differentiate CIC from its competitors," stated CIC's President, Guido DiGregorio. "These factors include successful large scale deployments with 6 of the top 10 insurers, both on premise and hosted solutions, together with a complete suite of enterprise class products from SKUs, APIs and SOA architectures that complements our core competence to optimize any insurer's solution."
