The London Market Group (LMG) has created a data council, which aims to push the digitalisation of the group through commitments to using standardised data.

“The creation of this body is a critical step in taking the London Market to the next stage of its digital development,” said Lloyd’s Market Association CEO Sheila Cameron, who has been tapped to chair the council.

According to the LMG, the council will drive the adoption of the following:

  • Data standards in conjunction with ACORD
  • Placement and claims in the London market’s Core Data Records (CDR), which is the critical transaction information that will drive an increase in automated processes
  • Computable contracts
  • Data assembly processes across the market
  • Application Programme Interfaces (APIs)

The members of the new Data Council are:
