3. 85% of executives cite Cyber
Risk as a top concern.
Marine businesses are at greater risk of Cyber attack.

Is your policy language clear with
respect to Cyber Risk?
In addition to the data breach potential,
exposures include: property damage,
bodily injury, business interruption and
third-party liability.
The list of potential exposures is
growing faster than the ability to
manage the financial and reputational
risk that can result.
MARINE CYBER RISK
4. Vessels and Offshore Platforms
Is your insured even aware of this risk?
Marine businesses are at greater risk of Cyber attack.
MARINE CYBER RISK
Researchers have found significant
holes in navigation systems security
(GPF, AIS, ECDIS).
“Every ship has a back door—
communication lines.”
— Markus Wahler,
Marine Cyber Consultant
5. Cargo
What do risk management teams need
to be doing today?
Marine businesses are at greater risk of Cyber attack.
MARINE CYBER RISK
“Shipping and supply chains are
the next targets for hackers.”
— International Maritime Bureau
6. Ports
Do your underwriters understand
these exposures?
Marine businesses are at greater risk of Cyber attack.
MARINE CYBER RISK
Ports represent significant
vulnerabilities in essential trade
infrastructure, according to the
Brookings Institute.
7. POLITICAL RISK AND
TRADE SANCTIONS
U.S., EU and UN identify shipping as
important to sanction objectives.
Marine and Aviation industries
pose the highest risk for insurers.
Political Risks should be a major concern for Marine insurers.
8. Criminal Charges Fines Reputation Potential Breach
of Contract
Are you comfortable with your organization’s risk controls?
POLITICAL RISK AND
TRADE SANCTIONS
“Underwriting”
Risks of trade sanctions
9. What is your exposure when things
go wrong?
Cargo and Hull sums insured are
quickly approaching $1B to $2B at risk
on larger vessels.

10. Economies of Risk:
Are you prepared for these events?
THE WIDE WAKE OF
LARGER VESSELS
Occurring more frequently and
costing more.
Risk size, environmental sensitivity
of the public, politics and limited
response infrastructure are all
contributing factors.
Salvage and Wreck Removal
11. Economies of Risk:
Do you have enough reinsurance limit?
THE WIDE WAKE OF
LARGER VESSELS
Arrivals are less predictable due to
slow steaming and, once in port, larger
vessels are tying up facilities longer.
The resulting increase in average
daily values in port can increase even
more quickly than the rate in growth of
the vessels themselves.
Port Congestion

Climate change is a reality.
Are you managing Catastrophe
exposures or just modeling them?
Insurers of cargo, pleasure yachts,
marinas, boat builders and boat dealers
need to prepare for a higher frequency
of larger storms and the implications
for their portfolios, such as wind, flood
and storm surge.
Most static Marine exposures
are located near the coast.
15. In today’s uncertain global
environment, the threats and
challenges for marine insurers
will only increase.
16. New exposures, such as Cyber and
Political Risk, continue to evolve on a
daily basis.
17. Cargo and vessel limits and other
Marine loss scenario exposures
continue to grow faster than the ability
to respond post-loss.
New exposures, such as Cyber and
Political Risk, continue to evolve on a

18. Cargo and vessel limits and other
Marine loss scenario exposures
continue to grow faster than the ability
to respond post-loss.
Will we experience another resulting
surge in serious and total losses when
the global economy picks up speed,
as we did from 2004–2007?
New exposures, such as Cyber and
Political Risk, continue to evolve on a
daily basis.
19. Growth in coastal Marine exposures
continues to outpace the economy
overall, and in the most vulnerable
locations.
Cargo and vessel limits and other
Marine loss scenario exposures
continue to grow faster than the ability
to respond post-loss.
