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”.

Kyle Freeman will join Axis immediately as head of ILS structuring, property. Boston-based Mr. Freeman will manage existing investor relationships and capital invested in property catastrophe sidecars, catastrophe bonds, joint ventures and other ILS structures, an Axis statement said.

Most recently, he was head of North America programs pricing at Axa XL, a unit of Axa SA.

Both executives will report to Chris Caponigro, global head of Axis ILS.
