Coronavirus – Lloyd’s market

Lloyd’s business continuity team has assessed the Lloyd’s market’s readiness to continue trading if the Underwriting Room needs to be closed at any point. Lloyd’s now proposes to stress test this.

  • For 24 hours on Friday 13 March (midnight – midnight) Lloyd’s will close the Underwriting Room in London and invoke its Emergency Trading Protocol.
  • This 24-hour exercise will provide valuable information on the real-life effectiveness of the protocol. Relevant regulators have been informed of these plans.
  • Additionally, Lloyd’s will take this opportunity to deep clean the Underwriting Room and all public areas in the Lloyd’s building.
