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”.

ZFS says U.K. flood claims less than $400 million

ZURICH, Switzerland— Zurich Financial Services Group expects claims from June storms and flooding in the United Kingdom to amount to less than $400 million.

The Zurich, Switzerland-based insurer said the pre-tax claims estimate is net of reinsurance. The final amount could change as remediation efforts continue on damaged properties, ZFS said in a statement.

Floods that caused widespread damage in July in southern England will be another significant loss for ZFS, the insurer said. Claims costs for that flooding have not been estimated.
