- August 21, 2026 10:20 AM (EDT)
//BestWire// - AM Best has affirmed the Financial Strength Rating of A+ (Superior) and the Long-Term Issuer Credit Ratings of “aa-” (Superior) of Lloyd’s Syndicate 2623, Lloyd’s Syndicate 623, Lloyd’s Syndicate 3623 and Lloyd’s Syndicate 3622 (Syndicates) (United Kingdom), which are managed by Beazley Furlonge Limited (Beazley). The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) is stable.
The Lloyd’s market rating is the floor for all syndicate ratings, reflecting Lloyd’s chain of security and, in particular, the role of the Central Fund, which partially mutualises capital at the market level. The ratings of the Syndicates reflect the balance sheet strength of the Lloyd’s market, which AM Best assesses as very strong, as well as the market’s strong operating performance, very favourable business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.
The capital of Syndicates 2623, 3623, and 3622 is provided by Beazley via its corporate member, whilst Syndicate 623 is supported by third-party capital.
Syndicates 2623 and 623 have a record of good performance and maintain a resilient position in the Lloyd’s market. Together, they underwrite business at Lloyd’s in parallel, with their shares of combined business split according to each syndicate’s portion of overall combined capacity. Syndicate 3622 ranks as one of the smallest syndicates at Lloyd’s, with its core lines of business being life insurance and reinsurance, whilst Syndicate 3623 writes a diversified portfolio by geography and line of business.
