Spain

Our story in Spain

Supporting the Spanish insurance industry for 25 years.

Spain is the fourth biggest country of the continental Europe by extension. With a population of 46 million, Spain is the 13th largest economy worldwide by GDP. The country is divided in 17 Autonomous Communities and it is a constitutional monarchy.

By its geographic situation and history, Spain is a doorway to the North of Africa and Latin America.

Spain is the third country most visited worldwide and the second by income generated in respect of the tourism industry. It is also the eighth country worldwide by presence of multinational companies.

Lloyd’s is authorised in Spain to transact business since 1993, on a freedom of services basis, and since 2001, on an establishment basis. Since 2004 Lloyd’s has a fully operative office in Madrid.

Our network of brokers and coverholders covers all the domestic territory and offers almost all specialised insurance products for which the Lloyd’s market is well-known, both in insurance and reinsurance.

Lloyd’s is a member of the main professional insurance associations and has a close relationship with the main insurance distributors and institutions.

Our customers are the businesses and entrepreneurs who drive and serve the Spanish economy and they come to Lloyd’s to access the scale, diversity and financial strength of our specialist insurance and reinsurance market.

Lloyd’s provides tailored insurance and reinsurance solutions for a variety of Spanish risks including all classes of insurance, except death insurance (burial expenses) on a FOS basis, and credit, suretyship, assistance and term life (on establishment basis).

The depth of expertise and breadth of products sets the Lloyd’s market apart. Customers have access to the combined scale, expertise and capacity of an entire market, not just a single insurance company.

As our world is reshaped by economic, environmental, geopolitical and technological shifts, the breadth, depth and responsiveness of the Lloyd’s market gives Spanish businesses the confidence to move forward in the face of uncertainty.

The Lloyd’s market champions diversity and is leading the field in encouraging open, inclusive cultures across our industry.
