Leroy's of Zeebrugge
Leroy's of Zeebrugge is an insurance and reinsurance market located in Zeebrugge in the Aemilian Alrig jurisdiction of the Confoederatio Aemilia. The market has a strong focus on marine insurance and was founded by Arnoud Leroy at the café overseeing the fishing harbour of Zeebrugge in 1668, owned by Arnoud's father, Michael Leroy. The insurance and reinsurance market does not operate as an insurance company itself, but brings together customers seeking insurance, and syndicates of underwriters.
Incidents
Following the Sinking of the Biternion, involving a vessel insured by the Apollonian Shipping Company through the insurance market, on 12.XIII.1735, Leroy's of Zeebrugge issued an advice that ships sailing under the flags of the Benacian Union or Shireroth, or any other party to the Streïur uis Faïren, should only be insured if they sail in convoy and with the insurance premium taking the increased risk in consideration.
