Terrorism

With terrorist activity increasing and evolving, never has the need been so great to protect your assets and liabilities. An attack near your facilities could result in loss of life, property damage, denial of access and business interruption.

Many banks require terrorism insurance before they fund projects, while good corporate governance also demands sufficient cover. Yet many insurance policies now exclude losses arising from terrorist acts, while government-backed insurance facilities have limitations that can lead to inconsistencies in cover across different countries for international companies.

JLT is a market leader in terrorism insurance, and one of the largest global political risk insurance brokers. Our specialist Credit and Political Risk, Political Violence and Terrorism teams have substantial knowledge of all regions worldwide and work alongside stakeholders including banks, sponsors and Legal Counsels.

Our insurance experts and risk analysts create tailored programmes to meet your individual needs, and enhance government-backed solutions, using a systematic methodology to help quantify, prioritise and minimise your exposure to terrorism risk.

Typical insurance solutions include:

  • property damage, whether through an act of terrorism, sabotage, malicious damage, strikes rioting or civil commotion or broad form political violence, including war and civil war
  • business interruption including cover such as loss of profits, gross earnings and debt servicing repayments to lenders
  • delay in start up with tailor-made coverage to support lending for infrastructure and energy projects
  • liability cover to fill the gap created by restrictions by some insurers on standard policies, including both Employee and Public Liability
  • nuclear, chemical, radiological and biological cover - JLT has identified markets willing to cover these perils traditionally excluded from traditional terrorism policies.
