Marine Cargo Insurance

Marine Cargo Insurance can appear at first to be confusing, and all too often this ends with the customer relying on the carriers or the exporters to provide insurance cover. Carrier’s goods limits are usually low and if you’re importing from abroad, how can you be certain that you have purchased comprehensive cover? If you are unfortunate enough to suffer a claim the onus is usually on you to prove that the carrier was negligent. With this in mind you should take out insurance cover to ensure that your goods are fully protected.
