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”.

Berkshire Hathaway Specialty opens London operations

Boston-based Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance Co. said Tuesday it has opened a London office to serve the United Kingdom and European countries, including Ireland, Spain, France and Italy.

Richard Nathan has been named as head of property lines; Patrick Brown head of executive and professional liability; and Andrew Walker head of claims, a Berkshire Hathaway Specialty statement said.

Mr. Nathan most recently was corporate property manager, U.K. and Europe, at Allied World Assurance Co. Holdings A.G.

Mr. Brown joins Berkshire Hathaway from Travelers Europe Ltd, where he was head of management liability and financial institutions.

Mr. Walker most recently was head of casualty claims in Europe for AIG Europe Ltd., and prior to that, head of liabilities claims for AIG in the United Kingdom.

“Richard and Patrick will deliver bespoke specialty solutions backed by financial strength, while Andrew will ensure that excellent in-house claims expertise is available for customers from day one,” said Tom Bolt, president, U.K. and Southern Europe, for Berkshire Hathaway Specialty, in a statement.

Berkshire Hathaway Specialty was established by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. in 2013 as the reinsurer sought to expand into the surplus lines and specialty insurance market.
