Financial services holding company Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd. said today that it understands that the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York will review information that Fairfax provides to the SEC in response to SEC subpoenas, but that Fairfax has not been advised that it is the target of an investigation by that office.

Fairfax confirmed its Oct. 10, 2005 release that it has not received a subpoena or other information request from the U.S. attorney’s office.

Fairfax said it continues to cooperate with the SEC’s investigation.
