Business insurance types

商保類型

A: Hello, Mr. Smith. How is business?

你好，史密斯先生。最近生意如何?

B: Not so good, I have to say.

我得說，不盡如意。

A: Why, what has happened?

為什么?發(fā)生什么事了?

B: Well, the May consignment of canned fruits arrived at the destination rather dented and our users refused to pay for it.

你瞧，五月份裝運(yùn)的罐頭水果制品運(yùn)達(dá)目的地時(shí)，受擠壓凹陷了，用戶拒絕付款。

A: That really sounds bad. What's the cause for the damage in your opinion?

那確實(shí)太糟糕了。那么你認(rèn)為貨物損壞的原因是什么?

B: Personally, I think the damage was due to careless packing. But my exporter insists that the damage has nothing to do with packing itself and asks me to claim against either the insurance company or the shipping company. So my question to you is whether I can lodge a claim with the insurance company on the damaged goods.

我個(gè)人認(rèn)為損害是由于包裝不當(dāng)造成的，但出口商堅(jiān)持認(rèn)為貨物的損壞與包裝本身沒有關(guān)系，并要求我向保險(xiǎn)公司或貨運(yùn)公司索賠。因此，我想問問您，我能否就損失的貨向保險(xiǎn)公司提出索賠。

A: Well, your problem relies on what sort of insurance policy you have taken out.

嗯，你的問題癥結(jié)在于你投保的類型。

B: You see, we have got an "open cover" policy with the insurance company.

我們與保險(xiǎn)公司簽訂的是有預(yù)約保險(xiǎn)。

A: Well, I don't know I can give you an answer before I know the terms of the policy. Generally speaking, under a CIF term, it covers only "All Risks" and "War Risks", at 110% of the invoice value. Additional specific risks may be covered by additions to the FPA and WPA.

在我了解到你方的投保條款之前，我無法回答你的問題。但一般來說，根據(jù)CIF價(jià)格條件，所投保的貨物發(fā)票價(jià)值的110%的綜合險(xiǎn)和戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)險(xiǎn)。對(duì)額外風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，你可以附加投保平安險(xiǎn)和水漬險(xiǎn)。

A: Have you taken out insurance yet on the shipment?

您是否已經(jīng)替這批貨投保了?

B: Yes, we talked about it with our underwriter, and we think that we should get a policy for total loss only.

是的，我們和保險(xiǎn)公司談過，覺得應(yīng)該投保全損險(xiǎn)。

A: Why TLO? That only helps if the goods are destoryed, or damaged so badly that they can't be used.

為何要投全損險(xiǎn)?這種險(xiǎn)只有在貨物全毀或破損到不能使用的情況下才有用啊。

B: We have shipped a lot of goods. We think TLO is the best policy for shipment. Trust us, please.

我們出過很多貨，我們覺得全損險(xiǎn)對(duì)這批貨是最合適的。請(qǐng)相信我們。

A: OK, we'll trust you this time.

好吧，這次就聽你們的。

B: Thanks, there is really no need to worry. Our company has never lost money because of under insurance. Your shipment is secure.

謝謝。真的不用擔(dān)心。我們公司從來沒有因?yàn)椴蛔泐~保險(xiǎn)而造成損失過。您的貨不會(huì)有問題的。
