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”.

Descartes Insurance said Thursday it would offer companies in France parametric-based coverage for cyber risks with limits of €5 million ($5.4 million) per policy.
The trigger for the cyber shutdown coverage is a “cyber encryption incident” as part of a ransomware attack “as evidenced by the encryption of an initial file stored on a computer, server or (programmable logic controller) administered by the insured company,” a spokesman for Descartes said.
Third-party cyber specialists will determine whether an attack has taken place.
The policy is designed for small- and medium-sized businesses and offers coverage based on pre-defined daily limits for business interruption losses, according to a statement from the insurer, which is a unit of Paris-based Descartes Underwriting SAS.
Claims will be paid within three weeks, the statement said.
