Kiln and Tokio Marine Europe have formally rebranded as Tokio Marine Kiln, an international specialist and corporate insurance provider.
The newly-combined business, formed in January this year, is now headquartered in London. Tokio Millennium Re (UK) Ltd, a Tokio Marine Group subsidiary company which has an operation in London, is not affected by this change and will continue to follow its own strategy, reporting to a different management team in Zurich, according to a Nov. 10 statement from the company.
“Today is a milestone in the development of Kiln and Tokio Marine as we join under a single brand to deliver continued profitable growth,” group CEO Charles Franks commented in the statement.

“As Tokio Marine Kiln, we will fulfil our clients’ needs by offering a broader range of products and services, significant financial strength, an empowered talent pool and greater flexibility through having both a Lloyd’s and Company platform.
“Uniting Kiln and Tokio Marine Europe under a single brand enables us to capitalise on the global scale and financial strength of our parent, one of the largest insurance groups in the world, at a time when scale, distribution and relevance are critical differentiators.
“For our clients, it is ‘business as usual’ and we remain committed to the strong, longstanding relationships we have harnessed over many years, with empowered underwriting at our core.”
