The Future at Lloyd’s strategy was launched on 1 May 2019, which was followed by wide-ranging consultation involving Lloyd’s unique ecosystem of market participants, customers and other stakeholders, on the transformational initiatives outlined in the prospectus. Work will begin on building and delivering prototypes and full services from October 2019, with some operational in early 2020.
The six bold ideas outlined in the future at Lloyd’s illustrate how the market could transform the way it delivers value to its customers, and include:
- A platform for complex risk that makes doing business easier and enables efficient digital placement of the most difficult-to-cover risks.
- Lloyd’s Risk Exchange through which less complex risks can be placed in minutes at a fraction of today’s costs.
- Flexible capital that can simply and effectively access a diverse set of insurance risks on the Lloyd’s platform.
- A Syndicate-in-a-Box, which offers a streamlined opportunity for innovators to bring new products and business into the market.
- A next generation claims service that improves customer experience and increases trust in the market by speeding up claims payments.
- An ecosystem of services that helps all market participants develop new business and provide outstanding service to their customers.
