The Beazley Difference

BEING BOLD

Freedom lies in being bold. We dare to be different and seek bold possibilities to create more innovative, fair and satisfying outcomes for our clients, brokers and employees. From insuring the highest building in the world, to the first commercial lunar vehicle to operate on the moon - we boldly go where others won’t.

STRIVING FOR BETTER

Good is a start, but we go all-out for better.  A driven community of individuals relentlessly push the needle and creating value. From launching the market’s first dedicated ESG syndicate to the establishment of our business unit focusing on designing digital insurance solutions, we pride ourselves on always going above and beyond.  Simply put, at  Beazley we go to 11.  

DOING THE RIGHT THING

Acting with integrity in a straightforward, decent way is instinctive. Open and honest with others, we show respect and empathy however challenging the situation – demonstrated by our multi-award winning claims team.  Doing the right thing makes for a fair-minded, rewarding environment and makes work and life better for all.

Examples or Scenarios


The founder and former CEO, a minority shareholder, brought a claim under s.994 of the Companies Act 2006 seeking relief on the ground that the company’s affairs were being conducted in a manner that caused him prejudice. The private equity company appointed directors and the private equity company were named defendants in the litigation. It was alleged that the defendant directors withheld information including company accounts, excluded him from the management of the company in breach of a shareholders agreement and used company assets for the benefit of the private equity company, to the detriment of the insured portfolio company.
