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”.

Chubb estimates after-tax cat losses of $156M

Reprints

Chubb Corp. said it estimates catastrophe-related losses to be about $240 million before tax, or $156 million after tax, in the second quarter of 2013.

The Warren, N.J.-based insurer said Tuesday that about $175 million of the pretax losses came from catastrophes in the United States, primarily from various severe storms in the central states. The $65 million in non-U.S. losses came mostly from the storms and flooding in southern Alberta, Canada, in June.

Chubb is scheduled to announce its second-quarter 2013 financial results after the stock market closes next Thursday.
