Launching our own managing agency at Lloyd’s has been a primary objective for our team. We are also appreciative of the efforts of the team at Capita who helped get Syndicate 2232 up and running and who have helped to make this transition as seamless as possible.”
Allied World Europe’s President Julian James added, “The establishment of Allied World Managing Agency Limited at Lloyd’s is another significant step for our European platform. We continue growing, expanding our presence in the primary market and providing our trading partners and clients with innovative products and services to meet their evolving challenges.
