Lloyd’s
A society of underwriters that was incorporated by Act of Parliament in 1871. Originally Lloyd’s only provided marine insurance but they now also provide other kinds. The insurance is undertaken by syndicates of private underwriters (names), each of which is managed by a professional underwriter; since 1992 limited companies have been allowed to become names. Each name underwrites a percentage of the business written by the syndicate and has to deposit a substantial sum with the corporation before being admitted as an underwriter. The public deals with the underwriters only through Lloyd’s brokers.
