Also contamination due to stress of weather is covered. Claim for leakage and shortage recoverable under the insured is subject to adjustment clause. Insurance attaches from the moment cargo leaves the tanks for loading onto vessel and time limit of delivery to the final point of delivery is 30 days only.

Bulk transfer

The transfer of a group of members from one occupational pension scheme to another. A transfer payment is made to the new scheme based on the transfer of assets and liabilities. The transfer may occur when members of a closed final salary scheme are given the chance to join a new money purchase scheme. More usually it occurs when the business changes ownership. The consent of the members is required as they could opt for a pension transfer to a personal pension, a section 32 policy or no transfer at all. The transfer payment usually exceeds the individual’s cash equivalent transfer value.
