Alfred Doll-Steinberg

Alfred Doll-Steinberg (20 September 1933 – 9 May 2012) was a British chemical engineer, who made a significant contribution to the design and economics of oil refinery and petrochemical plant design in its early days. In the early 1990s, he became the most vociferous of the Lloyd’s "names" who suffered heavy losses in the London insurance market, and was chairman of the Gooda Walker and Wellington action groups. Lloyd's offered a £900 million settlement in due course and in response to political pressure and legal action by the numerous "names" groups.

Early life Alfred Doll-Steinberg was born in Vienna, the son of Marcus Doll-Steinberg, who worked for the government there until the Austrian Nazis sacked all Jews from government jobs, and they moved to Nottingham, England.

In 1988 he founded a scholarship at Gonville and Caius College, the James Arthur Ramsay Prize.
