Marine cargo stands out as an important element of world trade and covers a large part of international trade. Maritime transportation is a logistics solution that enables the safe and effective transportation of large quantities of goods. However, due to various risks that may arise during the marine cargo process, marine cargo insurance is very important for companies operating in this field.
Marine transportation insurance is a type of insurance that covers losses and damages that may occur in the process from loading the transported goods onto the ship until they are unloaded. This insurance provides financial security for ship owners, cargo owners, carriers and other partners in the process because marine cargo insurance covers loss or damage to goods, ship and employees.
Maritime transport insurance is generally designed to provide protection against various risks that may arise during the transportation process.
The main types of marine cargo insurance are as follows:
In today's world where trade takes place at a global level, maritime insurance is an important assurance tool that provides financial protection against various risks that may arise during the transportation of transported goods by sea.
The scope of maritime transport insurance covers a wide range of risks and varies depending on the type of material transported, transportation conditions and route.
Maritime transport insurance generally covers the following risks:
Marine transportation insurance premium pricing is determined depending on a number of factors such as the value of the goods transported, transportation distance, type of goods, route, packaging condition and security measures. Premium refers to the cost of the insurance policy and is calculated based on risk factors determined by the insurance company.
Maritime insurance premium is generally priced based on the value of the goods transported. As the value of the goods increases, the insurance premium generally increases because loss or damage to high-value goods can result in a higher cost.
Transportation distance, the distance from the starting point of the goods to the destination, affects the insurance premium. For long-distance transportation, the premium usually increases due to the increased risks to which the goods are exposed.
The type of goods transported is an important factor in pricing the insurance premium. Some goods may be more delicate or more susceptible to theft, which may result in an increased premium. For example, valuable electronics or luxury items may be insured at a higher premium.
The chosen route and the ports of call of the transported products also affect the premium. Some ports and routes may involve more risk, which may cause the premium to increase. In particular, risk assessments for specific geographical regions are taken into account.
Proper packaging of materials can prevent damage during the transportation process. Therefore, the packaging status of the material is another factor that affects the insurance premium.
Security measures implemented during the transportation process are another important factor affecting the insurance premium. For example, ship security, port security and other terms and conditions in the logistics chain play a role in determining the premium.
