Have you ever examined the real risks from events, accidents, theft, freight loss or damage or cyber-attacks that could interrupt your supply chain and your business?  Have you ever read through your insurance policies to see whether they really address those risks?  All too often people don’t do this and there can be serious surprises.

This workshop will review the scope of coverage and basic differences between insurance for loss or damage to property, injury to persons, who is the “insured” and what risks can be insured.  Panelists will discuss cargo legal liability insurance, broker “contingent” liability insurance, shipper interest cargo insurance, fraud and deceit insurance and cyber insurance policies and endorsements.

The panelists will also provide suggestions for the policies and coverage you need to have and what you should require from your transportation service providers to protect your interests.

At the conclusion of the formal presentation there will be an optional “Bring Your Own Cheese and Crackers” Q & A and networking event​. Please calendar 30 minutes for this.
