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”.

Philippines: More mergers and acquisitions expected in nonlife sector

January 29, 2014 Reprints

Higher capital requirements in the Philippines could lead to more mergers and acquisitions in the nonlife sector in the near and medium term, the Philippine Daily Inquirer reported.

Philippine Insurers and Reinsurers Association president Emmanuel Que said smaller players may find it difficult to meet the increasing capital requirements, adding that some may prefer mergers, while a few may surrender their permits.

The number of nonlife insurers in the Philippines has fallen to 69 from 100 a few years back.
