The unique features of the Lloyd’s Corporation and Market and their governing rules are complex and are often difficult to navigate even for the most seasoned practitioner. This book provides the reader with a definitive and detailed guide, and is essential for any practitioner dealing with Lloyd’s Insurance.
After a brief historical account, the book provides a thorough legal description and analysis of Lloyd’s, which includes topics ranging from the constitution and membership requirements of Lloyd’s, UK and overseas regulation, the processes for placing and underwriting business and handling claims, chain of security, enforcement and disciplinary matters, compensation and the reconstruction and the renewal of the Lloyd’s market between 1990 and 1996.
The book will be an invaluable reference tool for insurance practitioners and professionals dealing with Lloyd’s.
Julian Burling is a barrister at Serle Court, and has been involved in advising on and implementing nearly all significant legal developments at Lloyd’s in the last 25 years.
"This is an excellent new book which deserves praise of the highest order: in its specialist field it makes a material contribution to the broadening of knowledge and understanding. It is a book which will serve the needs of many with an interest in the Lloyd's market and it may be said of any insurance library that does not have this book on its shelves that it is to that extent incomplete and deficient." -Journal of International Maritime Law (2013) 19
"The author’s approach to the subject is comprehensive detailed and thorough. Yet the book is set out and composed in a clear, logical, readble and readily understandable style. It has already become an essential tool for practitioners dealing with Lloyd’s transactions." - Jonathan Goodliffe, solicitor for the British Insurance Law Association Journal (issue 127, 2014)
