Hiscox has announced it is to establish Bermudian operations.

The move makes it the second Lloyd's insurer to start-up in Bermuda after Amlin announced its intention last week.

According to reports, Hiscox is in the final stages of fund raising that will capitalise the new start-up in time to begin writing for the key renewal season.

Hiscox has said it will issue a statement tomorrow.
