We provide mutual Protection and Indemnity (P&I) cover on a not-for-profit basis, and it is our largest line of business.

We cover marine liabilities arising from vessel operations including:

  • Collisions with vessels.

  • Damage to fixed or floating objects.

  • Loss of, or damage to, cargo.

  • Pollution from the vessel, or its cargo.

  • Loss of life and injury to crew, passengers and third parties.

  • Wreck removal.
