They take on the risk and responsibility for the ceded policies and must ensure they have adequate capital and capabilities to manage the new business and meet regulatory requirements.

It covers the documents submission requirements, the necessary capital adjustments and integration plans that receiving syndicates must provide to ensure a smooth transition and compliance with Lloyd’s regulations.
