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”.

Property insurance rates to decline in U.A.E. in 2016: Marsh

February 23, 2016 Reprints

A report by U.S.-based insurance brokerage firm Marsh has said that property insurance premiums could decline in the United Arab Emirates in 2016 due to excess capacity in the market, reports The National.

Marsh expects rates to fall between 10% and 20% despite several high-rise fires recently, "as these buildings are not excluded by reinsurance treaties," said the report.

Marsh said that some insurers believe the recent losses could result in requests for "more detailed underwriting submissions and being more vigilant on risk-management practice."
