• Specialist insurance brokers understand logistics risks better than general brokers or freight forwarders
• Many cargo owners mistakenly believe shipping lines automatically provide comprehensive coverage
• Three main types of cargo insurance: single trip, annual blanket cover, and open cover policies
• Annual blanket coverage typically saves approximately ten times compared to multiple single trip policies
• High-risk commodities like lithium batteries require additional questions and specialized coverage
• General average costs are covered by cargo insurance but not by freight forwarder liability policies
• Standard policies typically exclude war risks and delays, though additional coverage can be arranged
• Real case: a £300 annual premium saved a mobility scooter manufacturer from a £40,000 loss
• Policies can cover door-to-door transportation and even warehouse storage in some cases
• Digital integration is improving insurance processes for both forwarders and cargo owners
