What Are the Key Differences Between CNA and Travelers Inland Marine Insurance?
Segmented offerings and class lists
Travelers describes inland marine across construction and transportation-related segments, including mobile equipment and other property in transit or at worksites. CNA’s list names builders risk, contractors equipment, EDP property, fine arts, installation floaters, medical equipment, transportation and wholesale distributors. The categories overlap for construction and mobile equipment but diverge in the explicit specialized-property examples. Ask each provider to map your equipment and materials to a particular form and schedule. [2] [4]
Segment eligibility and placement through agents
Travelers says inland marine is bought through an independent agent and does not publish limits or deductibles for the segment products reviewed. CNA describes dedicated underwriting, risk-control and claims specialists. Neither overview provides enough to compare limits directly. Confirm the issuing entity, valuation basis, transit territory, storage conditions and deductibles in the quote, particularly if one proposal combines multiple property types. [2] [4]
