Want to become a specialist in global logistics insurance and transportation law?

This is your chance to utilise your background in international transportation law and marine insurance and dive into truly global risk management, global liability claims handling, underwriting of contractual liabilities as part of contract negotiation and project management within the highly complex world of logistics.
