Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Syndicate Capital Trust, a corporate capital provider at Lloyd's, is expecting a "sound initial result" from its first year of underwriting activities in the insurance market. Richard Fielding, recently appointed chairman, said he was confident the shortly to be reported figures for the 1994 underwriting year would "stand us in good stead in the more difficult years ahead".

The group, which recently raised pounds 23m from shareholders in anticipation of the success of the Lloyd's rescue plan, saw revenues slip from pounds 1.57m to pounds 1.39m in the year to June. A final dividend of 1.75p maintains the annual total at 2.75p.
