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”.

Howden Insurance Brokers Ltd., a unit of Hyperion Insurance Group Ltd., has launched a stand-alone insurance product that mitigates the costs of rescue in a mine collapse.

Minero, developed by Howden in partnership with Argo Group International Holdings Ltd., covers the costs of the resources, equipment, logistics and personnel needed for a mine rescue operation and pays for the costs associated with responding quickly to rescuing trapped miners, the London-based broker said Thursday in a statement.

It also supports affected employees and their families and assists in managing company reputation, according to the statement.
