Hull and Machinery, for short: H&M
• Covers the vessel and equipment• Often include collision and damage to fixed or floating objects• Limited to the “sum insured” and• Subject to a deductible• H&M not mandatory• Most vessels are on ‘full
conditions’, but some, especially older vessels, will, for example, not be covered for most machinery damages

Loss of Hire, (LOH)To protect the income

Division of RiskSubscription / Syndication
• Because of the value and the need to spread the risk, few insurance companies will take the whole risk. The risk is therefore split between several insurance companies.

Placing the insurance• Most hull insurances are effected through one or more brokers
• There are most commonly several insurers on one fleet• Each participant takes a share of each vessel in the fleet. I.e. a 15% share of the cover pays 15% of any claim/vessel.
• One of the underwriters is appointed as claims leader: 1 contact point for the insured if a claim occur.• Some markets may operate with one or more rate leaders =
decide premium level.55
