Correspondents
Our Correspondents network extends around the globe to offer assistance and guidance to our Members wherever their trading operations take them.
Correspondents are selected on the basis of their practical knowledge of the shipping regulations and practices in their local ports and their P&I insurance experience. They act as independent advisers on behalf of our Members and are available to provide direct and immediate assistance in the event of an incident or casualty involving a vessel entered with the Club.
We pay for our Correspondents’ services in protecting the interests of our Members in respect of claims covered by the Club.
We recommend that Members request Correspondent assistance as soon as possible after an incident has occurred in order to benefit fully from the service they provide.
There are several ways to find Correspondents:
- The Advanced Finder provides an easy way to group multiple Correspondents for printing and producing in pdf format.
- The Find Correspondents by Country sets out Correspondents by country name/flag.
- A complete list of Correspondents can be accessed by using List All Correspondents.
The International Group of P&I Clubs (IGP&I) Correspondents Committee has published revised Guidelines for Correspondents.
