At Argentum RE we believe that the best solutions come from listening to our partners.

Over the past few months, we have received a consistent message from the market: there is a need for clearer, more specialized, and more efficient alternatives to address the risks of ports and terminals.

In response, we have worked with international reinsurers specializing in marine and infrastructure risks to develop a structured solution specifically for this segment, with global reach and predefined underwriting criteria.

→ Vessel Impact

→ Liabilities associated with vessels, equipment, and port operations

→ Complementary coverage tailored to the characteristics of each operation

Target Risks

We seek opportunities related to:

→ Port and terminal operators

→ Cargo, container, and logistics facilities

→ Passenger and cruise terminals

→ Inland and intermodal terminals

→ Ro-Ro facilities

→ Solid and liquid bulk terminals

→ Shipyards and associated maritime infrastructure

→ Other operations linked to the port and logistics ecosystem

More than just a market, specialization

We know that each port and terminal has different operations, exposures, and needs. Therefore, an efficient solution cannot simply be based on applying a standard structure.

We have previously worked with our reinsurers to define underwriting criteria, coverage structures, and information requirements, creating a framework that allows us to analyze each opportunity more efficiently, without sacrificing the flexibility needed to tailor our response to the specifics of each risk.

The goal is simple: less time building the market from scratch and more time understanding the risk and working on a concrete solution.

Do you have a Ports and Terminals opportunity?

Send us the initial risk information. Whether it's an upcoming renewal, a new business, a need for additional limits, or a strategic account where you want to explore an alternative, we want to be able to give you a quick initial assessment of the risk, its fit, and the placement path, so we can then work with you on a structure that truly meets the characteristics of the transaction.

Property Only. Liability Only. Port Package.

Three ways to approach risk. One goal: to respond quickly, without sacrificing expertise.

We listened, we developed, now we are ready to build opportunities together.
