Is Your Freight Protected? Understanding Cargo Insurance with TRG

 

What the heck is cargo insurance and who needs it?

Rising tariffs impact many things you may not have considered, including your Customs bonds and cargo insurance! In this webinar Travis Smith and Meredith Lambert from Trade Risk Guaranty and Michael D. Easton from Star USA talk all things cargo insurance and how you can minimize the risks you face in today’s trade environment.

Quick Tip: Confirm your cargo insurance is written to cover duty in the event of a claim and then check the per loss limit on your policy. It should be at least as much the value of your largest shipment plus freight and the current tariffs, fees, and taxes.
