Lloyds of London is an amazing structure built during the eighties. It is not an insurance company. Rather, it is a marketplace where insurance buyers and sellers come together. Lloyd’s began as a coffee house in the 1600s. Ship captains, vessel owners, traders and others interested in shipping gathered at the coffee house to buy or sell what is now called ocean cargo insurance. These days, brokers and underwriters convene at the Lloyd’s office building on Lime Street in the City of London. Lloyd’s is now a major hub for buying and selling a variety of coverages, not just marine insurance. IWA were commissioned to survey the power infrastructure given the age of the building and has now been involved in a total power upgrade providing reliance and longevity.
