Why Companies Using Blockchain and Digital Assets Need Insurance

But because these linked technologies are relatively new and are rapidly growing, companies that use them face a complex environment and evolving regulations.

Marsh Teams With Curv and Munich Re to Develop Innovative Insurance Protection for Digital Assets

Looking for an innovative insurance partner who is able to create client-specific insurance solutions in the digital asset space, including those that provide peace of mind to customers that they will have the financial capability to pay for the loss of crypto assets? Historically, crime insurance has covered the value of assets being held by an investor or custodian while cyber insurance has responded to first-party losses and third-party liability associated with network security, data privacy, and system failure events. Now, Marsh has teamed with Curv and Munich Re to develop an innovative insurance solution for digital assets that is tailored to Curv’s specific needs.
