The London and Overseas Insurance Company Limited


Dan Schwarzmann and Nigel Rackham are the appointed Scheme Administrators of OIC Run-Off Limited (formerly named Ralli Brothers Insurance Company Limited and The Orion Insurance Company plc) and The London and Overseas Insurance Company Limited (formerly named Hull Underwriters’ Association Limited and The London and Overseas Insurance Company plc) (together "the Companies").

This website is for Scheme Creditors to notify them of important matters.

Important update - 22 November 2024

We refer to the Practice Statement Letter issued to Opt Out Qualifying ILU Policyholders on 28 May 2024 (“28 May PSL”) in relation to the proposed “Final Scheme”.

On 11 July 2024, the Companies provided an update to prospective Final Scheme Creditors, notifying them that the proposed Final Scheme Convening Hearing had been postponed and that a relisted hearing date would be notified in due course. The original date for the Final Scheme Convening Hearing was postponed to allow for terms to be agreed in relation to the early final dividend offer (which was previously disclosed in the 28 May PSL). Those matters have now been resolved such that the Companies can proceed with the Final Scheme Convening Hearing.

We can now confirm that the Convening Hearing has been relisted for 16 December 2024, at which hearing the Companies will seek orders for directions to convene the Final Scheme Meetings.

Further details of the Convening Hearing and a copy of the 28 May PSL can be found in the ‘Scheme Documents’ section of this website.
