Both mid-tier and large companies from many different industries
The common misconception is that all environmental risks relate to oil spills – but this is not the case for most businesses. Your clients have an environmental risk if they:
- Own, operate or buy and sell property
- Operate on third-party premises
- Use, store, transport or produce a potentially hazardous substance that may cause contamination
- Create solid, liquid or gaseous waste
- Redevelop brownfield land
- Operate in a bio-diverse environment such as next to a nature reserve or protected habitat
- Operate in a residential or urban area
At ACE, our environmental impairment liability proposition is flexible and we tailor it to meet the needs of companies in different market segments, namely:
- Smaller companies (below $250m in annual revenues)
- Middle market (ranging from $250m to $1bn in annual revenues)
- Larger companies (above $1bn in annual revenues)
- Europe-based multinationals
Cover
In most cases, the majority of the cost of an environmental incident is dedicated to clean-up the contaminated zone.
Insurance, provided under property and casualty policies, offers limited coverage to address the possible effects of an environmental incident.
ACE responds to these gaps in cover by offering companies three broad types of environmental impairment liability coverage:
- First-party liability
- Biodiversity damage
- Third-party legal liability
