Freight Broker Liability Insurance protects freight brokers, logistics coordinators, transportation intermediaries, and supply chain organizations against the operational, contractual, and third-party liability exposures associated with arranging and managing the transportation of goods.

Coverage is designed to support financial stability and operational continuity when transportation errors, carrier issues, cargo incidents, or contractual disputes result in financial loss or liability claims.

Coverage typically responds to claims involving negligent carrier selection, cargo loss or damage, miscommunication, delivery delays, contractual liability, documentation errors, or third-party financial loss arising from freight brokerage and logistics coordination activities.

Coverage may also include protection for:

Cargo loss and transportation-related liability exposures

• Negligent carrier selection and subcontractor management claims

• Contractual liability associated with freight and logistics agreements

• Errors in shipping documentation, routing, or coordination activities

• Legal defense costs, investigations, settlements, and related claims expenses

• Coverage supporting domestic and multinational transportation, logistics, and supply chain operations

For organizations operating across multiple jurisdictions, coverage may be coordinated through a Controlled Master Program (CMP), such as the WMB Global Risks Global Master Program, with locally admitted policies where required to support coordinated cargo protection, regulatory compliance, and consistent coverage standards across jurisdictions.

Freight Broker Liability Insurance is designed to help organizations manage complex transportation and logistics exposures, protect financial stability, and maintain continuity across supply chain operations.
