Understanding the Five Fundamental Marine Insurance Exclusions
UNDERSTANDING THE FIVE FUNDAMENTAL MARINE INSURANCE EXCLUSIONS June 17, 2016 W. Harry Thurlow and Richard W. Norman COX & PALMER 1 INTRODUCTION The long and well-litigated history of marine insurance has led to a highly developed and codified law relating to marine insurance contracts. Of particular interest to those who underwrite risks and investigate losses in Canada are the marine insurance exclusions set out in the Marine Insurance Act, SC 1993, c 22 (the “MIA”). The MIA’s provisions have been the subject of substantial commentary and interpretation by Canadian courts. This paper will discuss several of these statutory exclusions as well as an additional exclusion which arose in response to the widespread use of Inchmaree cover. While there are many more exclusions which are common to most marine insurance policies, a good understanding of the five fundamental exclusions reviewed below (referred to collectively herein as the “core exclusions”) is key to analyzing basic coverage provisions and in particular, the requirement that perils be fortuitous. MARINE INSURANCE ACT Unless a marine insurance contract provides otherwise, the MIA imposes several exclusions. These are set out in section 53 of the Act, which begins by stating that an insurer is only liable for a loss that is proximately caused by a peril insured against, e.g. a peril of the sea. The Act defines perils of the seas as “…fortuitous accidents or casualties of the seas, but does not include ordinary action of the wind and waves”1. The MIA describes the following major exclusions which are incorporated into Canadian policies: 53. -

Freight Rates and Maritime Transport Costs
3 As in 2015, the shipping industry faced continued challenges in most segments in 2016, owing to the persistent mismatch between supply capacity and demand. With global demand for seaborne trade remaining uncertain, freight rates continued to be determined by the way supply capacity management was being handled. This chapter covers the development of freight rates and transport costs in 2016 and early 2017, describing relevant developments in maritime markets, namely supply and demand in container ships, dry bulk carriers and tankers. It highlights significant events leading to major freight rate fluctuations, discusses recent industry trends and gives a selective outlook on future developments of freight markets. In particular, the chapter explores the recent trend towards consolidation that developed in the container ship market, both in the form of new mergers and acquisitions, as well as through the emergence of mega liner shipping alliances and their implication on the market. FREIGHT RATES Container freight rates have been very low, and AND MARITIME competition on various trade routes has intensified. Market fundamentals in container shipping improved TRANSPORT for the first time since 2011, mainly as a result of a contraction in supply growth. The dry bulk sector COSTS continued to struggle with existing overcapacity and weak growth in demand, which led to sharp declines in freight rates. Freight rates in all tanker segments went down from the high level of 2015, but were not far from the five-year average across most segments. With regard to total international transport costs, UNCTAD estimates that in 2016 a country spent on average about 15 per cent of the value of its imports on international transport and insurance. -
