About JLT Risk Solutions (Bermuda) Ltd.
JLT Risk Solutions (Bermuda) Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Jardine Lloyd Thompson Group plc, which operates in 30 countries, employing more than 5,000 people.
Following the contraction of market capacity for certain industry sectors in 2001, Bermuda quickly filled the vacuum with the creation of highly-capitalised new underwriting entities and a significant injection of additional capacity by existing players.
JLT Bermuda has grown exponentially to meet the challenges and opportunities presented by this rapid increase in the volume of business. Our staff has doubled since 2001 and we now employ 50 professionals in our insurance broking and captive management operations.
JLT Risk Solutions (Bermuda) Ltd. is the third largest insurance broker in Bermuda, placing premium volumes of more than US$400m in the Bermuda market across three principal lines of business:

• Excess Casualty
• Professional Liability
• Property

We have developed an expertise in lines of coverage that are of key importance to our clients, focusing mainly on direct insurance placements, or facultative reinsurances including reinsurance of captives.
We are committed to further building and strengthening our resources in Bermuda to ensure that we consistently deliver a superior standard of service for our clients.
