Overview

Charles Taylor is a global insurance services firm with over 140 years of history, tracing its origins to 1884 when coal merchant Charles Taylor was appointed to manage claims and funds for The Standard Steamship Owners' Protection and Indemnity Association in northeast England. Today the company operates three primary divisions -- Claims Solutions, InsureTech, and Insurance Management -- serving clients across the Lloyd's market, international carriers, reinsurers, and specialty lines operators.

With 3,000-4,000+ specialists across more than 120 offices on six continents, Charles Taylor is among the most globally distributed professional services firms in insurance. The company was taken private by private equity firm Lovell Minnick Partners LLC in 2019, delisting from the London Stock Exchange to pursue accelerated growth through acquisitions and technology investment.

The InsureTech division provides end-to-end SaaS platforms for delegated authority management, broking, and policy administration targeted at Lloyd's market participants and international carriers. The Claims Solutions division offers adjusting, third-party administration, technical services, and AI-powered fraud detection. Insurance Management provides end-to-end program management on a partnership basis.
