Often enough transported goods also show traces of a troubled journey. They are subject to various risks during the transport and the related reloadings and interim storages.

Many of these cases are covered by the insurance of the forwarding agent. The scope of the liability is subject to the underlying Terms and Conditions and to national and international law. But this cover does not apply in all cases – e.g. when the forwarding agent is not at all or not to the full extent responsible for the loss or the damage.

For damages caused by elementary events, Force Majeure, or inevitable events there is no liability. A comprehensive protection against financial losses due to such events is offered by a goods transport insurance as a so called “All Risks Coverage”.
