BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Council of Insurance Agents & Brokers names strategic resources exec

Reprints

WASHINGTON—Cheryl Matochik has been named vp of strategic resources and initiatives for the Council of Insurance Agents & Brokers, the Washington-based organization announced Friday.

In her new job, Ms. Matochik “will blend the strategic planning of the council's resources and programs with driving the next generation of content initiatives,” the group said in its announcement.

Ms. Matochik previously was director of strategic initiatives in the office of the council president. She assumes her new position after Nicole Allen recently joined Swiss Re Ltd. as senior vp/state regulatory officer of direct commercial insurance.

“Brokers today are sophisticated consultants providing collaborative, complex problem solving to manage client risk,” Ken A. Crerar, president and CEO of the council, said in a statement. “The need for them to draw on multifaceted forms of knowledge and business intelligence resources drives the council to think ahead of the curve and provide color commentary on challenges and opportunities which elevates our members and their competitive advantage.

“The future of how we develop those strategic resources is among the council’s biggest opportunities and we’ll look to Cheryl to engineer this area for us,” he said.
