Shipping Insurance Risk in the Strait of Hormuz Escalates, With U.S. Reinsurers Expanding Capacity to $40 Billion

Iran approves cargo ships carrying essential goods and humanitarian aid to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, while two ports in Hormozgan Province are attacked by the US and Israel. The US International Development Finance Corporation announces an increase in reinsurance support for shipping through the Strait of Hormuz to $40 billion, jointly provided by major US insurance companies such as Chubb, aiming to restore shipping confidence. Despite the expansion of insurance coverage, market reactions remain cautious, with shipping companies concerned about personnel safety risks, and the reinsurance plan does not include military escort measures.
