Marine & Cargo
Marine and cargo insurance protects goods as they move through the supply chain, whether in transit and or in storage before reaching their final destination. Stock throughput policies provide continuous protection by coordinating marine and property coverage, instead of treating goods in transit and in storage as separate exposures.
Why It Matters
Goods in transit don't stay within one policy's boundaries
Goods moving through a supply chain cross between transit and storage repeatedly — loaded on a vessel, unloaded to a warehouse, then trucked onward — and a standard, location-based property policy isn't structured to follow that movement. Stock throughput coverage is evaluated where goods-in-transit and storage exposures require coordinated marine and property solutions.
HUB's Approach
Coverage structured to follow goods across the supply chain
HUB structures marine and cargo coverage, including stock throughput policies, to follow goods continuously across the full supply chain rather than only at fixed property locations. This coordinates marine and property coverage so a shipment in transit, a shipment in storage and inventory at a fixed location are addressed under one structure rather than separate, location-specific policies.
Because goods movement patterns vary significantly by industry, including commodity transport for agribusiness clients, cargo and equipment in transit for transportation clients and inventory moving through distribution for food and beverage and other organizations, HUB's Marine and Cargo advisors structure coverage to match an organization's actual movement of goods, coordinating with HUB's industry practices wherever that exposure exists.
