Political violence insurance, also known as terrorism insurance, safeguards your business against losses from all kinds of unstable geopolitical situations, offering valuable protection from unrest. Your company might not seem like an obvious target for terrorism, but you may still need this coverage. Insurance would protect you, for example, against losing business as a result of a nearby bomb threat and goods being held up in transit by pirates, and offers cover for employees in politically volatile countries getting stuck in a war zone.
