Risks & Potential Liabilities
Is your freight forwarding business protected against the unique risks it faces daily? With cargo handling errors, delays, and subcontractor mistakes on the rise, comprehensive liability coverage is essential. Discover how Cargofort’s specialized insurance solutions can keep your operations secure and your mind at ease.
the industry
Recent industry reports highlight a worrying trend
Fraudulent carriers and thefts of entire trucks and shipments are escalating across Europe, posing severe financial risks
Damages & delays caused by subcontractors have become a major issue, affecting delivery schedules and customer satisfaction
Employee mistakes & cargo handling errors are adding to the liabilities and operational challenges for forwarders
These challenges are creating an increasingly unstable environment for freight forwarding companies, making comprehensive and reliable insurance coverage more crucial than ever
the challenges
Freight forwarders face critical challenges with their insurance coverage
- Inadequate Coverage: Choosing the cheapest insurance often results in insufficient coverage, leaving forwarders exposed
- Rejected Claims: Many forwarders face rejected claims, resulting in significant financial strain
- Damages by Subcontractors: Frequent damages & delays caused by subcontractors can lead to substantial liabilities
- Escalating Fraud and Thefts: Rising cases of fraudulent carriers and thefts of entire trucks and shipments are devastating
- Lack of Experienced Support: Navigating claims without an experienced insurance broker and claims handler can be overwhelming
- Increasing Premiums: Poor claims history is causing insurance premiums to rise steadily, impacting profitability

The Hidden Costs of Inadequate Coverage
These rising challenges can put your business at serious risk. Imagine facing an expensive cargo theft, only to discover your insurer and subcontractor’s CMR insurer both reject the claim due to insufficient coverage. Or dealing with a significant damage claim without the backing of an experienced broker, leaving you to navigate the complex process on your own. These scenarios can cripple your operations and strain your finances, all while insurance premiums keep climbing.
