ATL Marine & Energy is one of the latest Lloyd’s of London approved brokers to emerge on the marine insurance scene — but it is building a wealth of experience to rival its more established peers.

The company was started by Inaki Bandres, who was one of the founders of SSL Insurance Brokers.

Bandres sold his shares in SSL in 2010 and laid the foundations for ATL through a series of tie-ups with Spain's Atlantic Insurance and Reinsurance Brokers.
