Kidnapping, extortion, and related threats are an ever-increasing risk which businesses and high net worth individuals face when travelling abroad or into Africa and have become a prevalent occurrence locally within South Africa. These situations are highly sensitive and require a structured, expert-led response to protect both people and financial interests.

This specialist cover can provide:

Financial protection against ransom and extortion demands
