Lloyd’s of London
Founded in 1688 by Edward Lloyd in the City of London, Lloyd’s of London has grown to become the world’s most renowned marketplace for insurance and risk management. Unlike a conventional insurance company, Lloyd’s operates as an international market where a wide range of organisations—including insurers, brokers, and specialist firms—conduct business across diverse sectors such as insurance, banking, bonds, academia, marine transport, engineering, and financial services.
Headquartered in London, all activities at Lloyd’s are governed under the Lloyd’s Act of 1871, passed by the UK Parliament. Today, with its extensive global network, Lloyd’s stands as a symbol of trust, expertise, and innovation in the field of risk management.
