Marine Cargo Insurance helps protect goods while they are being transported during the normal course of business. Depending on the policy and agreed coverage, protection may apply to goods transported by ocean vessel, aircraft, barge, rail, truck or other modes of transportation.
The policy can help protect the insured against covered physical loss or damage to cargo while it is in transit. Marine Cargo Insurance is particularly relevant for businesses involved in imports, exports, manufacturing, trading, distribution, logistics and international commerce.
Depending on the nature and frequency of shipments, marine cargo insurance may be arranged for individual shipments or ongoing cargo movements, subject to underwriting requirements and policy terms.
Marine Cargo Insurance may be suitable for any business or organisation that has a financial interest in goods being transported and could suffer a financial loss if those goods are lost or damaged during transit.
