A clash between protesters and police causes a fire that damages your corporate offices.
Loss of goods
A ship carrying a vital shipment to an important customer is diverted because of terror threats.

FAQs

Political violence insurance, also known as terrorism insurance, safeguards your business against losses from all kinds of unstable geopolitical situations, offering valuable protection from unrest. Your company might not seem like an obvious target for terrorism, but you may still need this coverage. Insurance would protect you, for example, against losing business as a result of a nearby bomb threat and goods being held up in transit by pirates, and offers cover for employees in politically volatile countries getting stuck in a war zone.

Chubb’s insurance plans protect you for property damage from terrorism, riots, coups and more; business losses from the threat of terrorism; loss of goods from pirates or terrorists; and business interruption costs.
