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”.

“Agents and brokers often find that obtaining U.S. professional and management liability insurance for small and midsized private companies and not-for-profit organizations can involve a labor-intensive process and tight customer deadlines,” Mr. Maloney said in a statement.

In its current form, the program allows brokers and agents for privately held clients to submit requests for crime, employment practices liability, fiduciary and other miscellaneous professional liability coverage.

Brokers and agents for nonprofit buyers also can seek those products plus directors and officers coverage. The company said D&O coverage for private companies will be available through DecisionPoint next year.
