Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces that it is investigating claims
against Advanta Corp. ("Advanta" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: ADVNA)
(Nasdaq: ADVNB) concerning whether the Advanta Corp. Employee Savings
Plan or the Advanta Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Plans”)
imprudently invested in Advanta stock and whether the Plans’
administrators breached their fiduciary duties to the Plans’
participants in violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974 (ERISA).
