Long Tail:
The liability for a current-year syndicate at Lloyd's to pay claims against policies written by syndicates that operated and closed in prior years. A current Lloyd's "syndicate-year" (see below) assumed these liabilities by "reinsuring to close" its predecessor, which had reinsured its predecessor, which had reinsured its predecessor, which had done the same, all the way back to the first year the syndicate began operations. This tail of old obligations assumed by the current "year" of a longstanding syndicate could, and in some cases did, stretch back 50 years and more.
