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”.

Australia: QBE Insurance could face shareholder class action

April 03, 2014 Reprints

A shareholder class action is looming for Australia-based QBE Insurance Group Ltd. because of a fall in its share price in December 2013 following a severe profit downgrade warning by the insurer, The Sydney Morning Herald reported.

Maurice Blackburn class actions partner Jacob Varghese said QBE shareholders were concerned the insurer's profit downgrade announcement timing was "less than frank."

QBE Insurance chief CEO John Neal said "we are very vigorous in terms of recognizing our continuous disclosure obligations, and I'm 100% confident that we've met those in every respect."
