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”.

Goldman Sachs to acquire Ariel Holdings' insurance, reinsurance business

NEW YORK—Goldman Sachs Group Inc. will acquire Ariel Holdings Ltd.'s Ariel Reinsurance's Bermuda-based insurance and reinsurance operations, Goldman and Ariel announced Thursday.

The acquired business will become part of Goldman Sachs Reinsurance Group under the brand name Ariel Re. The acquired operations will be combined with Goldman's existing business underwritten through Lloyd's syndicate 1910.

The transaction, terms of which were not disclosed, does not include neither Ariel's credit and surety business run through its Zurich office, nor its Atrium Underwriting Group Ltd. at Lloyd's, which will continue to be owned and operated by Ariel Holdings.

The transaction is expected to close on April 1, subject to regulatory approval.
