British Chamber of Commerce award for Singapore office
Lloyd’s Asia, the Singapore office of Lloyd’s, has won the British Chamber of Commerce’s British Business Award 2007 for financial and professional services.
The award was given to the best British business in Singapore in their nominated category, and recognises outstanding UK-linked businesses and their contributions to the local economy.
Lloyd’s Asia was also recognised for the fact that it is the only office outside of London to use a specialist underwriting floor.
Speaking about the award, Simon Wilson, General Manager of Lloyd’s Asia, said: “The last 18 months have been an exciting time for Lloyd’s in Asia, with the number of Lloyd’s syndicates with a presence in Singapore quadrupling. As the Asian economy grows the platform is in an excellent position to capitalise on opportunities and support the growing market.”
