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”.

American International Group Inc. has launched the new brand name Blackboard for its technology-focused subsidiary, which previously operated under the Hamilton USA brand, the insurer said Monday.

AIG completed the acquisition of Hamilton USA on Oct. 2. The unit will operate as a startup backed by the resources of AIG and is expected to launch by the second half of 2018, AIG said in a statement.

The company added that the name “represents a clean slate” and the unit’s “vision is to reimagine and transform commercial insurance through digital technology, data analytics, and automation.”
