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”.

CNA Financial Corp. on Thursday said it has increased limits for umbrella and excess accounts to $50 million.

The increased capacity will be available on a lead or excess basis, the insurer said in a statement. Prior to this increase, available limits went up to $25 million, a CNA spokesman said Thursday in an emailed statement.

“Our customers asked for broader forms and additional capacity, and we are pleased to deliver both,” Chicago-based Michael Kirchgessner, vice president of umbrella and excess underwriting, said in the statement.
