The economic turmoil, the financial institutions' collapse, the automation technology expansion, and the corporate downsizing are leading to an unprecedented increase in violence and crime. The trend is reinforced by poverty and drugs, and sometimes supported by political and police corruption.
Abduction for ransom, extortion aiming at corporate executives, or holding a ship and its crew hostage represent multimillion dollars transactions for the criminal gangs and substantial volume in the "industry of crime". This explains the explosive proliferation of record numbers.
BrokersLink's specialists indicate that unless a crisis is properly managed, the consequences of financial, employee and customer losses - resulting in damage of corporate credibility - can be devastating to the company shareholders. Therefore the family members or the valuable employees who are an asset for the company, may be very well at risk. These uncertainties can be alleviated by a sound capital insurance against kidnapping, extortion, and piracy.
The insurance program plays a critical role in minimizing losses during and after an incident. It provides a vast array of benefits, not only for the reimbursement of ransom and extortion money, but also for loss of earnings and business interruption, medical and legal expenses, personal and corporate financial losses.
However, the most important benefit is the crisis management support, which also provides life saving and the assistance by a team of specialists in ransom negotiation. The survival and safe return of the hostage is the priority objective throughout the process.
BrokersLink's dedicated specialists analyze all aspects of the company's and family's risk, taking into account local conditions, travels, financial profile etc. and as a result, suggesting the most appropriate solution.
In this regard, BrokersLink is committed to offer Protection and Security while understanding the vulnerability of today's business individuals in their global search of opportunities.
