Since the business began in the 1960s, Kiln has valued
its customers in mainland Europe, and was delighted
to establish a presence on the Continent in 2006 with
the acquisition of the Belgian marine underwriter,
Belmarine, which now trades under the Kiln brand.
The multilingual team offers lead capability on
all classes of marine business from its base in Liège.
In addition, a dedicated team writes aviation and
space business from Paris. Both operations provide
clients with direct access to a range of Kiln
products at Lloyd’s.
Kiln is an international insurance and reinsurance
underwriting group with a portfolio of specialist risks.
From the beginning it has built its business on the
strength of its underwriting and its relationships.
Kiln is part of the Tokio Marine Group. Its UK
operating company, R J Kiln & Co Limited, currently
manages five syndicates at Lloyd’s and, in terms of
capacity, is one of the largest agencies trading in the
Lloyd’s insurance market. In addition to the UK, Paris
and Liège, Kiln has offices in Hong Kong, Singapore,
South Africa and Brazil.
A recognised leader in each of the six main business
areas in which it operates: reinsurance, accident and
health, aviation, marine, enterprise risk, and property
and special lines, Kiln syndicates benefit from a
security rating of ‘A+’ (Strong) assigned to Lloyd’s
