CEO
Lloyd’s of London
Any list of the most influential women in insurance must include Inga Beale – the first female CEO of Lloyd’s, first to top the OUTstanding list of 100 leading LGBT executives and now a Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. Among her endless list of accomplishments, Beale told the Guardian she is “incredibly proud of the work that [Lloyd’s is] doing to encourage diversity … to become a truly modern, global and inclusive sector.” Now facing Brexit and the UK’s general election, Beale is calling on leaders to improve London’s access to international markets and to continue fostering a diverse workforce in order to maintain the industry’s growth and contributions to the economy. Lloyd’s also plans to set up a new office in Brussels by mid- 2018 to ensure that it can continue underwriting insurance policies for the rest of the EU.
