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”.

Executives

Markel Corp. said Wednesday that Terry Ledbetter, chairman and chief executive officer of its State National division, will retire at the end of this year and be succeeded by State National President Matthew Freeman.

Mr. Ledbetter founded State National with his brothers, Lonnie and Garry, in 1973, Richmond, Virginia-based Markel said in its statement.  Mr. Freeman joined State National in 2016 as president. Markel acquired State National Cos. Inc. in November 2017.

State National’s program services business provides reinsurers and other capital providers access to the U.S. property/casualty market in exchange for ceding fees.

In addition, its lender services business insures personal automobiles and other vehicles as collateral for loans made by credit unions, banks and specialty finance companies.
