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”.

Despite a slowdown in March and June, Florida’s excess and surplus lines market premium volume totaled $9.7 billion in the first half of 2024, up 12% on the prior-year period, according to data issued Tuesday by the Florida Surplus Lines Service Office.

Overall policy counts in the first half rose to 733,960, up 7% over the prior-year period.

Current figures indicate a possible year-to-date slowdown, the Florida Surplus Lines Service Office said.

In June, premium volume fell 9% to $1.8 billion, while policy counts totaled 135,637, a nominal 3% increase over June 2023.
