韩国政府检查海运保险公司的战争风险再保险 中东紧张局势升级

金融监督院正在审查提供海上保险的本地非寿险保险公司是否拥有足够的战争风险保障,因为中东紧张局势升级导致霍尔木兹海峡附近船只持续遭受袭击。这是在美国和以色列对伊朗发动军事打击后,伊朗对船只进行报复。官员表示,大多数韩国保险公司已获得包含战争风险条款的再保险。

金融监督院(FSS)正在审查提供海上保险的本地非寿险保险公司是否从其再保险公司获得足够的战争风险保障,因为在美国和以色列打击伊朗后,霍尔木兹海峡附近对船只的袭击持续发生。这一重要航道承载全球约五分之一的石油运输,超大型原油运输船的深水航道位于伊朗领海内。 金融监督院最近要求国内主要非寿险保险公司,包括三星火灾海上保险、DB保险和现代海上火灾保险,验证其再保险安排是否涵盖战争相关风险。一位金融监督院官员表示:“我们了解到,大多数韩国保险公司已获得纳入战争风险条款的再保险覆盖。” 标准的海上再保险合同通常排除武装冲突造成的损失的全额赔偿。随着地缘政治风险升级,保险公司往往必须购买单独的、昂贵得多的针对战争损害的保险。再保险允许保险公司将风险转移给其他公司,从而减轻大型索赔带来的潜在财务风险。 业内人士表示,目前约有20艘韩国船只正在该海域航行。典型的海上保险单包含战争风险条款,但如果军事对抗似乎迫在眉睫,保险公司可能会向船东发出72小时通知,要求转用保费更高的专业战争风险保险单。如果未续保,战争相关损害通常不予赔偿。 如果再保险公司未提供足够的战争风险支持,保险公司可能在事件中面临重大财务风险。一艘超大型原油运输船价值在1000亿韩元(6800万美元)至2000亿韩元之间,如果遭到袭击,可能导致超过该金额的赔偿责任。 伊朗对中东航运和能源基础设施的持续袭击已推高油价,加剧了对全球能源危机的担忧。
