CBL Insurance Europe DAC (“CBL”), a Republic of Ireland-based insurance company, has been under administration since 12 March 2018 and was directed to stop paying claims by the Central Bank of Ireland on 9 December 2019.

On 20 February 2020 the Central Bank of Ireland lodged a petition with the Irish High Court to seek a winding-up order and to have a liquidator appointed.

FSCS is working closely with CBL’s current administrator and the Central Bank of Ireland to make sure that any eligible policyholders are protected. FSCS will protect most UK-based customers of CBL who are either individuals or small businesses with an annual turnover of less than £1m.
