Zurich Insurance launches UAS/UAV insurance packages

April 6, 2015  By Workerscompensation.com

April 6, 2015, Toronto - Zurich Canada, a leading property and casualty insurer, has launched a new insurance product that will help its customers across a range of industries take advantage of the risk mitigation and cost saving opportunities available through the use of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), commonly referred to as “drones.”


The new drone insurance package, developed in partnership with
UK-headquartered Global Aerospace Underwriting Managers Limited, a
leading provider of aerospace insurance, also closes an important
coverage gap for companies already making use of drones in their
operations.

“Zurich’s customers in Canada will be the first ones around the world
to have access to this unique insurance solution, thanks to the
sophisticated regulatory environment governing the use of drones in
Canada,” said Urs Uhlmann, CEO of Zurich Global Corporate Canada, and
leader for Zurich’s drones program in Canada. Following the Canadian
launch, Zurich’s drone insurance package will be rolled out globally on a
country-by-country basis, based on local demand and the sophistication
of the regulatory environment governing drones in each country. | READ MORE
