Lloyd's has decided not to pursue admitted status in the U.S., according to Chief Executive Officer Richard Ward.

In a six-month status report to Lloyd's franchisees, Mr. Ward said that no action will be taken for the time being to obtain admitted status in this country.

"The main reasons for this were the associated regulatory burden, limited franchisee interest and Lloyd's distribution profile within the U.S.," Mr. Ward said.
