Your cargo is exposed to a wide range of risks whilst in transit. Accidents, damage by water or fire, improper stowage by the carrier, and theft or pilferage are all potential risks to your cargo. Our Marine Insurance policy offers complete insurance coverage for your goods while in transit.
What is covered?
Marine Insurance covers you against perils faced in
- Marine cargo (ICC)
- Inland transit (ITC)
- Air cargo (ICC Air).
The broadest form of coverage is “ALL-RISK”. An “ALL-RISK” policy insures approved general merchandise in the event of physical loss or damage from any external cause. This includes new, packaged goods without unusual susceptibility to loss from breakage, pilferage, or the nature of the goods themselves. “ALL-RISK” policies almost cover all losses possible in the course of an international shipment.
