Le Lloyd's de Londres n'est pas une société et n'a pas la personnalité morale. C'est seulement une sorte d'association d'assureurs individuels admis après enquête du comité du Lloyd's et dépôt d'un cautionnement important. Les courtiers agréés auprès du Lloyd's ont un réseau de correspondants dans le monde entier et les risques qu'ils proposent dans cette sorte de Bourse que constitue le Lloyd's sont acceptés par un groupe d'assureurs, sans aucune solidarité. Si l'un se présente comme chef de groupe (apériteur) chacun signe la police et n'est tenu que pour la part du risque qu'il a acceptée. (Précis du droit des assurances, Yvonne Lambert-Faivre, Dalloz, 1973, p. 424). 1, record 2, French, - ap%C3%A9riteur
