Lloyd’s of London has closed their underwriting room; therefore, our Syndicate underwriters will be trading remotely and will either utilize PPL as the main placement method or revert to the Lloyd’s Emergency Trading Protocol, which has been distributed by Lloyd’s recently.
Please reach out to your underwriters with any questions, and connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn for the latest news and insights.
Our thoughts go out to all those impacted by COVID-19. We hope you continue to prioritize your health and the health of those around you.
Small Business Paycheck Protection Program
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act expands the availability of small businesses loans under Section 7(a) of the Small Business Act to include the new Paycheck Protection Program.
Generally designed for businesses with fewer than 500 employees, Paycheck Protection Program loans may be used for payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent, utilities and interest on certain other debt. The program will open for applications on April 3, 2020, and be available through June 30, 2020.
Determining Eligibility
Businesses should contact their banks immediately to determine if the bank is an eligible lender and most importantly to get in the queue for approval.
