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”.

Amlin said in a statement that its German branch focuses on specialized property/casualty business for those enterprises.

London-based Amlin said it has received permission from the German regulator, the Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht, and the Dutch regulator, De Nederlandsche Bank, to open a branch of its European operation, Netherlands-based Amlin Europe N.V., in Germany.

The operation is headed by Managing Director Martin Bircks, who formerly was head of liability, casualty and legal protection and head of product management for commercial lines at Zurich Insurance Group Ltd.
