The annual and interim reports (also known as Full Year and Half Year reports) present the financial results of Lloyd’s and its members on a bi-annual basis, and may be used as a reasonable presentation of the results and state of affairs of the Lloyd’s market on a basis that is broadly comparable with those of general insurance companies. The reports include the “pro forma financial statements”, which consist of the aggregate of syndicate annual accounts, members’ funds at Lloyd’s (FAL), and the Society of Lloyd’s financial statements.

The triangulations are based on underwriter data manipulated by Xchanging and sent to LMA where it is reformatted. They provide a snapshot of market performance (gross of RI) by risk code and are updated quarterly.
There are two versions, single currency (where all numbers are converted to sterling) and one where the reports can be split into one or more of 16 settlement currencies. The reports are only made available to full members of the LMA.
Where classes are written by four syndicates or less, that code cannot be displayed for reasons of confidentiality. Some classes have full premium but partial claims information and these are highlighted in the caveats section.

The PI Pack is a quarterly report produced for each Lloyd’s managing agent showing relative gross underwriting performance benchmarks for each of the syndicates managed by the agent.
Loss ratios for each syndicate class of business for the last five years of account are plotted against the performance of a notional market, the forecast loss ratios from the syndicate’s approved business plan and the loss ratio calculated from the PMDR benchmark price. The report provides a unique insight into the relative underwriting performance of the syndicate.

The Cross-Cycle Performance Report is produced for Lloyd’s managing agents annually and is intended to show how effectively syndicates manage the insurance cycle, by comparing their performance against that of the wider market since 1993.
Unlike the Performance Information report, which compares syndicate class of business performance against a notional market, the Cross-Cycle report shows syndicate performance in each Lloyd’s generic class of business, against overall market performance in each class on a non-notional basis. This approach more clearly illustrates how effectively the syndicate manages premium volume and business selection vs. its peers.

The reserve benchmarking exercise allows agents and Lloyd’s Market Reserving & Capital (MRC) to gain an understanding of syndicate reserve strength relative to the market via a series of key performance indicators and helps to identify trends over time. Reserving performance is analysed on both a 'held' and 'best estimate' basis and gross and net reserves are considered.
The packs are also intended to be an internal tool for agents to analyse their reserves and can act as a basis for discussions between MRC and agents around reserving related topics.
Packs are sent to agent contacts via email.
