Lloyd's market: Evolution of results (2013-2018)
The loss ratio has particularly deteriorated during the reporting period from 48.6% in 2013 down to 65.4% in 2018. However, with an average of 59.2% over the last five years, Lloyd’s loss ratio has remained well below the 65.8% reported by the four major European groups and the 63.4% of the Bermudan market.
Due to rising loss experience of natural disasters, the ROE of the London market fell sharply to -7.3% in 2017 and -3.7% in 2018 while in 2013 it was set at 16.2%. Within the average five-year period, the ROE of the London market is twice as low as that of the four major reinsurers (4.1% versus 8.2%).
