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”.

Experts have said that the European Union's Solvency II rules could drive mergers and acquisitions among the 5,000 insurers in the region in 2015, reports Reuters.
The European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority's recent stress test revealed that 14% of insurers would fail to meet the key solvency threshold if the rules had been applicable now.
The rules would come into effect in January 2016.
"Solvency II has driven some M&A activity and this may well accelerate in the lead-up to implementation of the directive," said an official.
