Our Products

Vessel Protect is a specialist War risks MGA that focuses on three core products: Marine War Risk, Kidnap & Ransom, and Increased Value Disbursement insurance.

Marine War

Vessel Protects offers comprehensive and bespoke coverage depending on the individual requirements of the insured. We can write up to USD 175m any one vessel.

Hull War

Vessel Protect offers comprehensive and bespoke coverage depending on the individual requirements of the insured. Standard coverage is offered on recognised international conditions such as the Institute War and Strike Clauses or Chapter 15 of the Nordic Insurance Plan. This will be aimed at shipping companies who may own a single vessel or a large multi-national fleet.

Cargo War

With the increased tensions and warlike actions in the Persian Gulf during 2019, our product is based on standard Institute War Clauses (Cargo) and cover is extended to cover physical losses or damages caused by war, civil war, rebellion, revolution, insurrection, or civil strife arising from any hostile act by or against a belligerent power, capture, seizure, arrest, restraint or detainment, derelict mines, torpedoes, bombs or other derelict weapons of war. We can write up to USD 150m any one conveyance.

Kidnap & Ransom

We can provide individual breach cover or annual worldwide policies. We provide comprehensive cover which will respond in the event of a hijacking situation and will reimburse the ransom payment and any associated costs.
