Crain Communications Inc. has launched Business Insurance Europe, a London-based biweekly news magazine for the European risk management community.

Ross III oversees Business Insurance Europe, serving as publishing director, while Nick White, formerly with Crain Communication's Automotive News Group, is associate publisher/advertising director.

The day-to-day operations of the Business Insurance Europe editorial team are run by Adrian Ladbury, who serves as editor of the magazine. Mr. Ladbury worked on Business Insurance in the 1990s and has held senior editorial positions at several insurance and risk management publications in London.
