Terrorism and Political Violence

Terrorism and political violence are often excluded from many types of insurance. A specific terrorism policy can fill the gap and keep you protected

Terrorism and political violence aren’t risks that can be transferred but some of the commercial consequences can. The effects of these attacks can cause property damage, loss of income, bodily injury and death, loss of attraction, loss of reputation, loss of key personnel… the list goes on. 


Terrorism and political violence are often excluded from many types of insurance, so a specific terrorism policy can fill the gap in your portfolio and keep you fully protected. Use an experienced broker to get you the right cover that’s ready to stand strong when you need it most.
