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”.

December 21, 2015 Reprints

The Indonesian government has merged two state-owned reinsurers, PT Reasuransi Indonesia Utama and PT Reasuransi Umum Indonesia, reported Antara News.

The merged reinsurer will operate under the moniker Indonesia-Re starting next year. The merger is "a reflection of the government commitment to creating a big and powerful national reinsurer, regionally and globally competitive," a government official said. Indonesia-Re is expected to record premium of 5 trillion Indonesian rupiahs ($356 million) and net profit of IDR 1 trillion in 2016, the reinsurer's president director Frans Y. Sahusilawane said.
