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 Association of British Insurers announced that insured losses from the recent floods in central and western England are expected to reach £1 billion ($2.0 billion).

The London-based ABI, which represents insurers in the United Kingdom, said its members had received about 3,500 commercial claims and 12,000 household claims resulting from the recent flooding.

Severe flooding occurred in northern England in June. The ABI said combined losses from the two periods of flooding are likely to reach £2.5 billion ($5.1 billion).
