Why do I need War Risks Insurance?
War Risks Insurance provides protection against war-related dangers—like stray mines, torpedoes, or terrorism—while cargo is at sea. It complements your main cargo policy and includes coverage for missing vessels. It also typically includes Strikes, Riots, and Civil Commotions (SR&CC) coverage, either bundled or added by endorsement.
