Almost every country in the world has legislation regulating the transaction of insurance. In this age of cross-border litigation, such topics as ‘non admitted’ covers are a legal minefield for the unwary and misinformed. For example in a landmark case in 2001 at the European Courts of Justice, (Kvaerner plc v Staatssecretaris van Financien) it was held that insurance premium tax must be paid in the country where the risk is domiciled.

When it comes to trading internationally, it’s not simply the cover that counts but the knowledge and expertise of your underwriting partner.
