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”.

NEW ORLEANS--William J. Kelly, president of WJK Advisory L.L.C. and former president of the Risk & Insurance Management Society Inc., was awarded the Harry and Dorothy Goodell Award during Monday's opening session of the society's 2007 conference in New Orleans.

In addition to serving as president of RIMS in 1995-1996, Mr. Kelly is also a former chairman of the International Federation of Risk & Insurance Management Assns. and former chairman of the insurance committee of the American Bankers Assn.

Mr. Kelly began his insurance career as an underwriter with INA in 1972.
