    WESTBOROUGH, Mass., Aug. 21 /EMWNews/ -- OneShield Inc, a leading

policy administration system provider supporting all personal, commercial

and specialty lines, announced today the expansion of their US operations

to include an office in Glastonbury Connecticut.



    



    In the past 18 months, OneShield has undergone exponential growth in

manage its aggressive growth effectively, OneShield recognized the

OneShield's CEO. "As with any company, our strength lies within our team.

Our customers rely on OneShield employees to have deep knowledge of

insurance and software technology in order to consistently deliver high

quality systems," commented Glenn Anschutz, Chief Executive Officer.
