	Lloyd's of London - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		While Lloyd was only the proprietor of the coffeehouse, his establishment was a popular place for sailors, merchants, and shipowners and Lloyd catered to them with reliable shipping news and a variety of services.
		Lloyd's response was to commission a secret internal inquiry, known as the Cromer Report, which reported in 1968.
		Lloyd's income counted as earned income, even for Names who did not work at Lloyd's, and this heavily influenced the direction of underwriting: in short, it was desirable for syndicates to make a (small) underwriting loss but a (larger) investment profit.
