Wavelength is the Lloyd’s Market Consortium set up in 2002 to insure ports, terminal and other cargo handling operators for their liabilities, handling equipment, property, terrorism, business interruption and port craft risks. The insured business activities range from containers to bulk cargoes, whilst the size operations range from the small specialists to the world’s largest multi-nationals.

Wavelength is led by XL London Market Ltd and QBE Marine & Energy who, with the combined strength and support of the other members of the Consortium, are able to deliver a highly specialized product. This includes cover available for traditionally high catastrophe areas with high limits, as well as more modest cover required by smaller operators in non-cat areas.

With a market premium income of £16bn in 2006, backed by £16bn of capital for 2008, Lloyd’s is rated "secure" and "excellent" by the major rating agencies. Lloyd’s is licensed in 69 countries.

Charles Taylor Consulting plc (CTC) is a partner in the Consortium. Through its extensive worldwide office network, CTC ensures that the Consortium has an office in all of the major maritime hubs, as well as satellite offices in more than 22 countries, offering claims and risk management advice to all of its Insureds.
