Sharing underwriting duties through a syndicate formed by a group of insurers is the setup you see at Lloyd's of London. In this market, underwriters organize into syndicates that pool capital and expertise to take on risks, with profits and losses shared among the members. This structure lets the market handle large or complex risks by spreading them across many participants. A reinsurer contracts with insurers to transfer risk, not to form underwriting syndicates; a mutual pool is a cooperative approach to sharing losses but isn’t the Lloyd’s-style syndicate system; and a self-insurance group retains risk internally rather than transferring it to external underwriters. So the organization described is the Lloyd's organization.
