                       Directors' Shareholdings

Amlin announces that a Director of the Company, Mr Brian Carpenter,
has acquired 112,468 ordinary shares of 25p each in the Company
("Amlin shares") as a result of exercising an executive share option
on 27 March 2003 over shares held by the Group's Employee Share
Ownership Trust ("ESOT"). Such acquisition increases Mr Carpenter's
and his wife's aggregate shareholding to 495,379 Amlin Shares. Mr
Carpenter is divisional underwriter of the Amlin Insurance Services
division.

As a consequence of Mr Carpenter's option exercise, and options
exercised on the same day by non-Directors, each of the executive
Directors of Amlin plc (Messrs Carpenter, Holt, Hextall, Philipps and
Stace) ceased to be interested in a total of 175,300 Amlin shares,
which they were previously interested in by virtue of such shares
being held by the ESOT. The total number of Amlin shares now held by
the ESOT is 5,923,002.

Note: For Companies Act purposes, all of the executive Directors of
Amlin are deemed to have a technical interest in the shares held by
the ESOT. The interest ceases when shares are transferred to
individuals who exercise their options.

Further details of Mr Carpenter's disclosure to the Company follow in
the schedule below.
