Who needs inland marine coverage?
Inland marine insurance provides financial protection for a business’s property that is transported on land. This can include equipment, products, parts and materials being shipped “inland” by automobiles, trucks and trains. Coverage extends to property that is owned or in a business’s care related to construction, transportation, fine art and renewable energy.
Our strong focus on specialized segments gives us a deep understanding of their unique needs and associated risks. We offer a wide array of additional insurance offerings that stand alone or can complement our focused industry segment products. Other industries we serve include communications, manufacturing, municipalities and specialized equipment.
