Lloyd's of London said on Tuesday that former Virgin Money boss Jayne-Anne Gadhia would be part of a committee to "drive long-term culture change" in the world's oldest insurance market.

Mental Health UK Chief Executive Officer Brian Dow and Lloyd's Market Association CEO Sheila Cameron are also on the independent Culture Advisory Group, which will be chaired by Lloyd's board member Fiona Luck and held its first meeting on Jan 30.
