Beazley Furlonge Ltd, the Lloyd's managing agency, was established in 1986 to underwrite specialist insurance products through Syndicate 623. After listing on the London Stock Exchange in 2002 and raising £150m, Beazley established Syndicate 2623 to underwrite in parallel with 623.

Through the Lloyd's syndicates and service companies, Beazley is licensed to trade surplus lines insurance and reinsurance in the US and in over 65 territories worldwide, and have operations in US, Canada, Latin America, Asia Middle East and Australia. Beazley manages six Lloyd's syndicates and, in 2016, underwrote gross premiums worldwide of $2.2 billion.

All Lloyd's Syndicates are rated A (Excellent) by A.M. Best and also benefit from the Lloyd's chain of security.

Beazley's global business is transacted through six divisions; life, accident and health; marine; political risks and contingency; property; reinsurance; and specialty lines. This diversity of Beazley's portfolio and the expertise of the group's underwriters have supported an unbroken 31 year record of profitability.
