The London-based insurance market, which began life in a coffee shop in Tower Street in the City in 1689, takes its name from Edward Lloyd, who owned the shop and apparently made strong coffee. The business of Lloyds of London now is to insure a wide range of global insurance risks. It's best known for marine and aviation cover but there are syndicates within the market that cover home contents and motor insurance. Four webcams from the Beazley trading floor show the hectic of trade. The graphic gives the results at the German Stock Exchange Xetra.
