We seek to understanding each client’s unique exposures and blending risk management analysis with market knowledge to tailor cover to suit. KMD’s bespoke cargo programmes are structured to achieve optimum price and coverage.

Cover often extends beyond the scope of standard cargo contracts to cover risks as ‘cradle-to-grave’ stock throughput (including retail stores), marine consequential loss / delay in start-up, contractors’ equipment, and equipment installation.

Combining marine cargo and stock throughput expertise, our knowledge of the different underwriter appetites of the Marine and non-Marine sectors ensures we achieve broad terms and conditions along with the best utilisation of underwriter capacity.

We specialise in the following industry sectors:

  • Oil, gas & commodity traders
  • Manufacturing & heavy industry
  • Retail, distribution & logistics companies
