Yes forget begging Simon Cowell for a Golden Buzzer moment, showcase your Underwriting skills at this LMA event instead. The accent is on showcasing female talent too by the way. Here’s the word;
The Lloyd’s Market Association (LMA) and Lloyd’s have announced today that they will host an Underwriting Talent Summit on Monday 24 November at the Lloyd’s building. Female underwriting leaders, together with their CEOs and CUOs from across the market, will come together to discuss how to foster female underwriting leadership and drive policy change – removing barriers and creating a pathway for women to progress into leadership roles.
The theme of the summit, Ring the Bell, celebrates the remarkable women who currently hold senior positions in underwriting and highlights the work still to do in building a future pipeline of senior female underwriting leaders.
Sheila Cameron, CEO of the Lloyd’s Market Association, said: “It is well recognised that there is a significant shortage of women in senior underwriting roles in the Lloyd’s market. This event is a call to action to ‘ring the bell’ and implement meaningful change to facilitate the growth and development of the next generation of female underwriting leaders in our market.”
Rachel Turk, Chief of Market Performance at Lloyd’s, said: “This summit is about delivering lasting, generational change. It’s not about virtue signalling—it’s about taking purposeful action, rooted in the clear understanding that diverse perspectives strengthen decision-making and drive better outcomes. Every business in our market and the wider industry stand to benefit from a broader pool of underwriting talent. The reality is simple: we need more women in underwriting, and we must be deliberate in creating pathways to bring them into these roles.”
