Risk and Insurance Management for Chinese Businesses in Germany: Protecting the Value of Goods During Transportation, Storage and Delivery – Case Study Seminar

Supply chains and functioning logistics are crucial to succeed in the European expansion of Chinese companies. The complexity of logistic systems is growing, new types of goods – like lithium-ion batteries – are being transported, stored, and delivered.

Even in perfectly organized logistics, something can go wrong, and the transported goods may be lost or damaged. Everyone involved in a transport has an interest in the shipped goods arriving at their destination undamaged and on time – or that any possible damage is covered by a transport insurance.

Setting up insurance without gaps of coverage while keeping flexibility can be a challenge in international trade and multimodal transportation. According to international conventions, transport service providers are only liable to a limited extent for the loss of or damage to the transported goods of a client. The so-called “Marine Cargo insurance” is the solution to bridge the gap between the carrier’s legal liability and the full potential loss.

In our workshop, we will focus on the challenges in Sino-German trade by covering the following topics:

• The different insurances relating to transport of goods
• Deep dive: protection provided under Marine Cargo insurance
• Claim examples and case studies
• Current developments and challenges on the insurance market
• Insuring warehouses and storage of goods – current challenges and case studies

This event is of high relevance for:

• Business managers who want to understand the risk and insurance management strategies in Germany.
• Employees who want to deepen their understanding of risk control and insurance management, as well as local market practices, legal compliance, different types of storage of goods and basics on fire safety standards.
• Employees from Chinese enterprises who have suffered losses due to unfamiliarity with local risk management and insurance market practices in Germany.

Following the seminar, we invite all participants to join us for drinks and snacks.
