Throughout its long history the name Tyser has been
synonymous with the Marine trade and the developing world, as well
as assisting governments with development of state-owned insurance
programmes. But right from the outset the Company was concerned principally
with insurance, both as underwriters and brokers at Lloyd’s,
and it is this business of which today’s directors and staff
are the proud inheritors.
Originally a family firm, after 180 years as a private partnership
Tysers became incorporated in the summer of 2001 as part of its
strategic development plan. Nevertheless, the essential characteristics
and family ethos of the firm remain and it is this combination
of commercial opportunism grounded in honourable and principled
business practice that sets Tysers apart.
