Freight collision clause

Clause incorporated in freight policies to cover threefourths of the shipowner’s liability for collision damage that may attach to freight. The clause is used only where freight is liable to be called upon to contribute to collision liability, i.e. where certain foreign laws may apply to the settlement. In English law freight is not taken into account in assessing the shipowner’s liability for collision.
