Cargo Facility
TECHNOLOGY
Our cargo facility is an Open Cargo/Shippers Interest Insurance program that protects both Freight Forwarders and their clients against physical loss or damage to cargo shipments. Each shipment is registered through a customized online platform that is specifically set up for the Freight Forwarder. The platform generates a Certificate of Insurance and automatically calculates the premium based on certain factors, such as the type of goods and method of transportation.
RISK EVALUATION
International Freight Forwarders offer a multitude of services and each service must be evaluated for the exposure and risk they present. ARM Group evaluates each service associated with the Freight Forwarder’s operation and offers a wide range of insurance solutions. Aside from the Open Cargo policy, ARM also offers:
- Errors and Omissions
Sometimes Freight Forwarders fail to insure each and every shipment, exposing them to lawsuits for cargo damage and theft.
- Third Party Liability
Third parties can be injured or tragically killed as a result of the movement of freight or accidents during loading and unloading of containers. Legal liability attributed to physical property, such as a warehouse dock, being damaged by the Freight Forwarder or someone the Freight Forwarder has hired is also covered.
- Contingent Auto Liability
Third party truckers are often hired to transport freight for the domestic portion of the international transit.
