WHY CHOOSE INSURANCE FOR
THe media?
We provide insurance for anyone working in the media — including those who can’t find cover elsewhere. As part of Insurance For Group, we offer specialist policies designed to provide you — and the people you work alongside — with comprehensive cover tailored to the risks specific to your role.
Depending on the policy, we can cover Accidental Death and Disablement, Sickness and Accident Medical Expenses, and Medical Evacuation and Repatriation — with 24/7 claims support from international claims experts.
Unlike most insurance policies our cover includes war – declared or not, rebellion, civil war and terrorism.
OUR POLICIES ARE DESIGNED FOR YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS.
Unlike other non-specialist insurers, we work hard to keep our list of exceptions to a minimum -- offering media professionals and agencies the flexible and
comprehensive cover they need to carry out their work without restriction.
