What is an 'All Risks' Policy (‘A’ Clauses)?
An 'All Risks' policy offers the most comprehensive coverage available, but it doesn’t cover every possible risk. Unless specifically included, it will not cover loss of market, loss or damage caused by delay, inherent vice of the goods, war, strikes, riots, or civil commotions. This coverage is now generally referred to as Institute Cargo Clauses (A), or ‘A’ Clauses.
