Foreign General Liability

Market Detail: International Citizens Insurance (www.internationalinsurance.com) offers liability coverage for corporations, non-profit groups, and international organizations. There are a variety of risks associated with world travel. Some risks are greater than others and vary based on destination country, number, age of travelers, and types of activities, among other things. To offset those risks, organizations need to have some type of foreign general liability plan. An existing corporate liability plan may not cover legal expenses and lawsuits brought in overseas courts. Travel to foreign countries brings with it challenges including corrupt officials, crime and unfamiliar laws, languages and customs. Organizations from the U.S. have no protections if they are taken to international court.
