Property Insurance

Fire and Allied Perils

Fire and allied perils is the base property cover in the Saudi market. It insures buildings, plant, stock and contents against fire and lightning together with a named list of further perils - explosion, impact, storm and flood, earthquake, and escape of water from tanks and pipes.

For many businesses it is the policy a landlord or a lender asks to see. Flood and storm are not nominal risks here: the Kingdom's coastal cities and wadi-side developments have taken significant flash-flood losses, and sums insured should reflect current rebuilding costs rather than book value.
