Equitas

Equitas is the general label given to a group of companies linked to Lloyd's of London. It was set up in 1996 specifically to reinsure liabilities that had accumulated in the syndicates at Lloyd's of London on policies written from the 1930s up to and including 1992. This business was reinsured by Equitas Reinsurance Limited, which was also appointed as run-off agent. The liabilities were retroceded to Equitas Limited, to which Equitas Reinsurance Limited has also delegated its run-off function.
