Every 60 days, a container ship fire makes headlines — costing insurers, carriers, shippers and freight forwarders tens or even hundreds of millions. But who really pays when cargo goes up in smoke?
In this episode of the Freight Buyers’ Club, recorded at London International Shipping Week and produced with the support of Ontegos Cloud, Mike King speaks with Chris Grieveson, Managing Partner at Wikborg Rein, about the rising threat of container ship fires, the role of misdeclared cargo, and why “cutting corners” on dangerous goods can come back to burn the entire supply chain.
We dive into:
• Why container ship fires are increasing in frequency
• How liability, fraud, and general average affect shippers and forwarders
• What new screening tools and best practices are emerging
• The importance of insurance (and what happens when you don’t have it)
Whether you’re a shipper, forwarder, insurer, or just want to understand the legal and financial fallout from these billion-dollar incidents, this is a must-listen.
