Lloyd’s of London

Lloyd’s of London

All Lloyd’s syndicates benefit from Lloyd’s Central resources, including the Lloyd’s brand, its network of global licenses and the Central Fund.

Syndicate Ratings and Rankings

In addition to the market ratings, the rating agencies also apply a range of other measures at a syndicate level.

In general, Lloyd’s is not supportive of the rating of individual syndicates. All syndicates benefit equally from the strength of the Lloyd’s brand, the global license network and a wide range of other central activities carried out on behalf of the market. All policies written at Lloyd’s are backed by security that is partially mutualized via the Central Fund.
