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”.

FERMA, audit group release guide on E.U. company law

The guide identifies responsibilities that should be shared between audit and risk committees and aims, among other things, to avoid overlap or duplication, Thijs Smit, president of the ECIIA, said Monday during FERMA's seminar in Brussels.

FERMA hopes the guide will become a valuable tool for risk managers and internal auditors, said FERMA President Julia Graham.
