Lloyd's and the Titanic


It is commonly known that Lloyd's insured the Titanic. What is known by only a select few is that "the Titanic was insured AFTER it had sunk, by a London broker who had received a frantic telegraphed order to do so from a colleague in New York, where the news of the disaster was closely held but known to insiders."
- Risky Business, p. 56, Scribner, 1995
