LONDON (Reuters) – Lloyd’s of London insurer Beazley said on Wednesday that its initial view of its net exposure to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, which caused huge damage in Florida in recent weeks, was between $125 and $175 million.

Insurance written premiums rose by 7% to $4.6 billion in the nine months to end-September and Beazley is on track to deliver its full-year guidance, it said in a trading statement.
