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”.

The Atlantic Basin on an average experiences around 11 named tropical storms, six hurricanes, and two major hurricanes during a season, which runs from June to November. However, these numbers are expected to be higher in 2016 given the atmospheric set-up, with the presence of La Niña being one of the most important factors.
