Ensuring certainty at sea, even in rough seas

More and more fishing companies are concerned about claims for damage to undersea cables. Especially now that the number of disputes is on the rise, sometimes running into millions. At the same time, your fishing company is experiencing a decline in its quota.

Due to disputes over fishing grounds, the arrival of offshore wind energy projects and changes in laws and regulations. Good insurance conditions, affordable premiums and a manageable excess are therefore more than welcome. We will take care of this. With our fishing policy, among other things. For years now.

Borders do not have to be a barrier

Risk management for trade is about so much more than simply taking out goods transport insurance. Above all, your transport needs to be able to continue. It needs to arrive on time and in excellent condition.

If you know where you want to go, we will get you there safely

These are challenging times for internationally operating logistics companies. Changing international laws and regulations present a challenge to arrange everything in a compliant manner. Since Brexit, waiting times and additional customs procedures make transport to the UK difficult.

Meanwhile, the rise of e-commerce and the growing number of cyber risks make it increasingly important to know who you are doing business with. As a reassurance: at Ecclesia, we can help you manage risks.
