Marine Sales Turnover Policy (STOP)

This policy provides cover from the time the raw material is purchased to movements to all intermediate locations for processing or storage until it reaches the destination or until the customer's responsibility ceases. It covers a company's sales turnover, unlike the other marine open policies which cover the value of goods which are offered for insurance. The company's annual estimated turnover can be covered as a single amount, and all a company needs to do is to provide sales turnover figures periodically to the insurance company (usually quarterly). All the requirements of a company's Marine policies can be met by a single comprehensive policy.
