General Average Disbursement

Underwriters in discussion in Oslo

"That which has been sacrificed for the benefit of all shall be made good by the contribution of all.”

As contributory values to General Average (GA) are assessed at the completion of the voyage, there is a possibility that these values are reduced or lost if further loss or damage to the ship or cargo occurs between leaving the port of refuge and reaching the final destination. This insurance covers the potential shortfall.
