Marine insurance covers the risks associated with transporting goods via sea, land, air, or rail. With billions of pounds worth of goods in transit annually, the importance of adequate coverage cannot be overstated. This insurance not only protects against physical loss or damage but also factors in essential costs like clearing, forwarding, VAT, and fluctuating currencies.

Key Considerations When Choosing Marine Insurance

• Sum Insured: This is the starting point of your insurance policy. It should encompass all potential costs at the claim stage, ensuring that you are covered comprehensively from origin to destination.
• Commodities: Accurately detailing what you're transporting is crucial. High-risk items require specific coverage considerations to avoid gaps in protection.
• Risk Transfer: Determining when responsibility shifts from seller to buyer is vital. Understanding this transfer point ensures you know exactly when and where your goods are covered.
• Basis of Valuation: How your goods are valued impacts your coverage. Ensure your policy includes shipping costs, freight charges, and accounts for currency fluctuations to avoid underinsurance.
• Documentation: Thorough paperwork preparation is key. Having all necessary documents in order ensures a smooth claims process, minimising delays and complications.
