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”.

Axa seeks expansion in Brazil

May 09, 2016 Reprints

Axa S.A. seeks to keep expanding in Brazil despite a crippling recession in the nation, reports Bloomberg.

Philippe Jouvelot, president of Axa's Brazilian unit, said that the insurer expects Brazil's insurance market to grow 10% in 2016.

Axa expects to have 500 million Brazilian reals ($142 million) in premiums in 2016.

The depreciation of real has made it cheaper to expand and higher-than-expected interest rates have bolstered financial profits for Axa, said Mr. Jouvelot.
