Marine liability and property insurance

Your risks extend beyond your vessels. Your insurance should too.

No matter what part of the marine industry you work in, we know the unique exposures of your shore-side operations. We help you identify and manage your risks - with the capacity, breadth and service to match. Your balance sheet depends on your risks being understood.

What is marine liability and property insurance?

Marine liability and property insurance covers both third-party and first-party risks arising from shore-side marine operations, including building, repairing, unloading and more.

Beyond these core solutions, we arrange protection and indemnity reinsurance programmes and specialist coverages for unique situations and exposures.
