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”.

LONDON—The managing agency of Kiln Ltd.'s four syndicates at Lloyd's of London has announced that it is to reduce its overall capacity at Lloyd's for 2008.

R. J. Kiln & Co. Ltd. has submitted its business plans to Lloyd's for the 2008 year of account. In a statement, Kiln said that, "in the light of expected competition in certain classes of business next year, the company plans to reduce its overall capacity at Lloyd's by 14% for 2008."

Edward Creasy, chief executive of Bermuda-based Kiln, said that the plan was, "consistent with our long held strategy of underwriting for profit rather than volume."
