A decaf coffee-house?
Article Abstract:
Lloyd's of London has changed since large losses were reported in the early 1990s, and corporate investors have helped to revive Lloyd's. Lloyd's is able to insure exotic risks, and lloyd's policies offer security. Lloyd's also has a global presence. There is concern that the Lloyd's brand strength could be eroded as underwriters identify more with large corporations operating in the market. Long-term capital is needed, however, and the annual-venture structure may have to go.
