VAT arrangements at Lloyd's - corporate members and Scottish Limited Partnerships - 2001 Quarter 4

Global market recovery rate

  1. The global market recovery rate for the quarter ended 31 December, 2001 is 61.29%.
  2. Corporate members and Scottish Limited Partnerships (SLPs) who are VAT registered on account of activities other than insurance underwriting may use the global market recovery rate where the number of syndicates on which they participate makes it difficult for them to calculate the composite recovery rate for those syndicates.
    Those corporate members and SLPs are therefore able to recover 61.29% of input VAT charged to them in connection with their underwriting business. However, Corporate members and Scottish Limited Partnerships that only participate on syndicates that write only EU business will not be permitted to use the global market recovery rate.
  3. The global market rate for the annual adjustment for the year ended 31 December, 2001 is 59.83%, subject to agreement with your local VAT office regarding other supplies made by you.
