Beazley

Beazley plc is a London-headquartered specialty insurer and one of the largest managing agents at Lloyd's of London, underwriting through Lloyd's syndicates alongside US admitted and surplus lines carriers and a European company platform. Its book is specialty property and casualty — cyber and technology risks (where it is a global market leader), professional indemnity, management liability and directors and officers, marine, political risk, contingency, environmental, healthcare and property. Its home market is the United Kingdom, where there is no open-insurance mandate; the only market-wide data and API modernization effort is the Lloyd's Blueprint Two programme, and Beazley sat on the closed beta group that tested Lloyd's ACORD-based Core Data Record. Unusually for a carrier, Beazley operates a real first-party developer portal at developer.beazley.com — an Azure API Management portal with self-serve account signup, a publicly browsable catalog of 14 published APIs across nine families, sandbox environments, and machine-readable OpenAPI 3.0.1 for every one of them. The APIs are partner-and-broker oriented rather than consumer facing — risk and quote data capture into Beazley's core Record of Risk systems, broker and insured marketing data, compliance validation, currency exchange, a cyber rater, and insurance-terms reference data. Every API is behind an Azure APIM subscription key and every product carries approvalRequired, so browsing and spec download are open but actually calling the gateway requires Beazley to approve the subscription. There is no ACORD, AL3 or IVANS reference anywhere in the portal or the specs, no webhook or event catalog, no GraphQL, and no bind, issue or FNOL endpoint — bind is done by brokers through the gated myBeazley quote-and-bind portal, not through the public API surface. Beazley is subject to a recommended all-cash offer from Zurich Insurance Group announced 2 March 2026.

Beazley publishes 9 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Data Capture: Quote and Risk Data v2, Data Capture: Quote and Risk Data v1, Data Capture: Quote and Risk Data v3 (pre-release), and 6 more. Tagged areas include Insurance, United Kingdom, Property and Casualty, Cyber Insurance, and Specialty Insurance.

Beazley’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, API reference, signup flow, sandbox, support, product news, and 27 more developer resources.
