Lloyd’s may be the global market for specialist insurance and reinsurance, but it is also a London icon. Over the last three centuries, Lloyd’s has called home to just eight buildings – the most recent of which can be found on Lime Street, in the heart of the City. Designed by renowned British architect Lord Richard Rogers and opened by Her Majesty The Queen in 1986, the Lloyd’s building is a radical addition to the skyline, and a pioneering example of high-tech architecture.

About

History

The Lloyd’s building is the third headquarters occupied by Lloyd’s on the site and was designed by architect Richard Rogers. Opened by HM Queen Elizabeth II in 1986, the building became a defining example of high-tech architecture, with its lifts, staircases and services located on the exterior to create flexible internal space. In 2011 it was awarded Grade I listed status, recognising its architectural significance. As the building marks its 40th anniversary in 2026, it remains one of London's most recognisable landmarks and the home of the Lloyd’s insurance market.
