Loss Prevention

Our Loss Prevention service supports Members and their brokers in operational and technical matters, assisting Members in minimizing their exposure to claims.

Many Members have requirements specific to their vessels and operations and therefore the service is able to create bespoke loss prevention initiatives to assist them. Initiatives include presentations, seminars, training and on board assessments

The Loss Prevention Visiting Service offered by the Club is voluntary from the Member who agrees to allow 10% of their Fleet be visited every 2 years. Once aboard the Risk Assessors will spend a maximum of 4 hours (one watch) conducting an assessment of liability risks tailored to the individual vessel based on her claims profile history they will also spend time discussing the current Loss Prevention material available from the Club which is designed to help Members reduce claims.
