Australia-based QBE North America, an operating division of global insurer QBE Insurance Group Limited, announced the launch of The Solution for Motor Truck Cargo – a comprehensive policy offering unique coverages for motor carriers. This new coverage combines both Motor Truck Cargo and Logistics Liability insurance in one policy.
The Solution protects shippers from financial losses occurring on the road, which may be due to damaged equipment, contamination, stolen goods, and related exposures, subject to the terms, conditions and exclusion of the policy. Unlike other Motor Truck Cargo policies, this policy provides embedded coverage for Mobile Equipment, Refrigeration Breakdown, Trailer Interchange, Contract Penalties, Deceptive Practices, and Contingent Coverage. There are additional optional policy enhancements – such as the ability to add another insured entity, Scheduled Shipper Coverage, and Specific Conditions.
Apart from the risks covered by The Solution, our in-house, dedicated specialty claims adjusters offer product expertise, industry specialization and a commitment to superior customer service both pre and post-loss.
Risk managers and chief information security officers are expected to have a complete understanding of their organization’s total cyber risk — a difficult task compounded by the need to coordinate potential gaps in an insurance portfolio placed with multiple brokers and carriers. This is made even more challenging by the constant evolution of technology, which opens the door to increased cyber-related exposures, ranging from property damage to business interruption to bodily injury. Chubb’s new suite of multiline cyber peril endorsements for the Global Cyber Facility helps risk managers address exposure gaps in their insurance portfolio and enables them to confidently respond to the concerns of their C-Suite and Board.
First introduced in 2015, Chubb’s Global Cyber Facility is an enterprise-wide solution that helps companies assess their cyber and data privacy risk, incorporates loss control services to mitigate losses, provides access to post breach services, and offers up to $100 million in capacity — all in a single policy.
