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”.

Pandemic bonds fail to pay out for Ebola outbreak

August 02, 2019 Reprints

The World Bank Group's pandemic bonds are under scrutiny after failing to make payouts despite an Ebola outbreak killing more than 1,800 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Reuters reported. Under the program, payouts are triggered once a virus outbreak crosses an international border and claims at least 20 lives in each of at least two countries, but it has killed just two people in neighboring Uganda.
