The Club Overview

Standard London  - Setting the standard for service and security

Standard London is a mutual insurance association, owned by its shipowner members and controlled by a board of directors drawn from the membership. The club insures shipowners, operators and charterers for their liabilities to third parties arising out of ship operations.

Standard London prides itself on the quality of its service to its members, and sets great store on responsiveness and support at all times, especially in times of crisis.  Just as important is the emphasis on financial strength and stability through the club's strong balance sheet and financial resilience.

Standard London is an associate member of the International Group of P&I clubs. 

The main elements of P&I cover are:

  • loss of life and injury to crew, stevedores, passengers and other third parties
  • physical damage caused to docks, fixed or floating objects
  • collision damage caused to other ships
  • pollution
  • cargo loss or damage

The managers are Charles Taylor & Co Limited, a company within the Charles Taylor Consulting group.
