War & Political Violence Insurance

Protection for assets, operations, and business continuity in a changing risk environment.

In an unpredictable world, businesses with regional or international exposure need insurance solutions that go beyond standard property and casualty coverage. War & Political Violence Insurance helps protect organisations against losses arising from politically motivated events, civil unrest, sabotage, terrorism, and related risks.

Whether you operate in logistics, construction, hospitality, energy, manufacturing, retail, or own high-value assets, we help arrange tailored protection designed for your risk profile.

Coverage Overview

  • Riots, strikes, and civil commotion
  • Malicious damage
