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”.

May 09, 2014 Reprints

The government of Nepal will split state-controlled insurer Rastriya Beema Sansthan's life and nonlife operations.

It has decided to set up a new public limited company, named Nepal Beema Co., to handle the nonlife operations. The government will own 41% of the new entity, while 30% of shares will be issued to the public. The government had previously failed to split the insurer's life and nonlife units after employee unions protested.
