DBS Recognitions and Cooperations

Insurance

Vessels classed by DBS are enjoying a wide acceptance by the insurance market allowing the owners to insure their vessels with the best possible rates.

Most recent acceptance has been achieved by Kiln Group who agrees to underwrite ships classed by DBS.

Kiln is an international insurance and reinsurance underwriting group with a portfolio of specialist risks. Since 1962, 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, Kiln has offices in Hong Kong, Singapore, South Africa, Belgium 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 by Standard and Poor's.
