 American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation: No-Action letter dated May 16, 2005
Pursuant to the terms of American Skandia's variable annuity contracts, a contract holder can elect to have his or her payments to American Skandia under the contract allocated among a number of different investment options through the applicable American Skandia separate account.
American Skandia would send the contract holder a quarterly account statement that identifies the amount of funds and each security in the account at the end of the period and that sets forth all transactions in the account during that period, including payments of the advisory fees that were made to the investment adviser.
You contend, in sum, that American Skandia will protect contract holders' funds and securities from misappropriation by the investment advisers in connection with the Direct Fee Payment Arrangements to the same extent as a mutual fund transfer agent protects client funds and securities from misappropriation by investment advisers in connection with similar arrangements.

 Skandia set to sail into wild oceans once more - Sydney to Hobart
AFTER four months, $4 million and 20,000 man hours of rebuilding, Grant Wharington is poised to throw his super maxi Skandia back into the Sydney to Hobart fray and attempt to wipe clear the memory of last year's catastrophic effort.

Wharington said Skandia's main challengers for line honours this year would be Alfa Romeo, Wild Oats, Konica Minolta and AAPT, but said he was confident his "more conservative" tactics would give his team the upper hand.
