One event can involve several different risks, but who is actually responsible when something goes wrong?

In our November blog, Iola Edmayr examines how assumptions about insurance responsibilities can leave important exposures overlooked, from damaged equipment and temporary structures to drone incidents and corrupted footage.

She explores why understanding contractual responsibilities and asking the right questions before an event begins are essential to arranging appropriate cover.

Did you know the Eiffel Tower was built for the 1889 World's Fair?

The tower was created for the Exposition Universelle in Paris and was conceived as a monumental gateway to the exhibition.

What began as infrastructure for one international event went on to become one of the world's most recognisable landmarks.

A remarkable reminder that exhibitions can leave a legacy far beyond the day the doors close.

Why does KEU need a completed proposal form when there’s already a policy schedule?

It’s a fair question, and one Melissa Warner, KEU’s Equipment & Prize Indemnity Specialist, answers in this short video.

An existing schedule reflects the cover arranged with another insurer. A fully completed KEU proposal form provides the information our team needs to assess the risk.

Watch Melissa explain why this matters when arranging Equipment All Risk cover for a client.

For outdoor events, adverse weather is a risk that needs to be considered long before the forecast becomes the story.

KEU's Event Cancellation Insurance Solution can include an adverse weather extension for outdoor events, but the cover must be arranged and the premium paid at least 14 days before the start of the policy.

With significant expenses, ticket revenue and sponsorship commitments potentially at stake, timing matters when arranging the right protection. T's and C's apply.

One incident can create more than one type of loss.

Damage to a piece of insured equipment and injury caused to another person are not necessarily dealt with in the same way.

In this short, Iola Edmayr uses a practical claims example to explain the distinction between an Equipment All Risk loss and a liability claim.

Not everything valuable on a production sits behind the camera.

Props, sets and wardrobe can carry substantial value and may be essential to continuity between scenes, locations and shooting days.

KEU's Film and Commercial Producers' Indemnity Insurance Solution can provide cover for physical damage to, repair or replacement of props, sets and wardrobe used during an insured production, alongside a broader range of production exposures depending on the cover arranged. T's and C's apply.

Equipment All Risk can involve more than protection against physical loss or damage.

The extensions selected can make an important difference when an incident affects a shoot, contracted work or the ability to continue using essential equipment.

Melissa Warner looks at two examples of extensions available under KEU's Equipment All Risk solution.

The value of an advertising production is not determined after something goes wrong.

Before the shoot begins, the non-recoverable expense budget, call sheet and storyboard help establish what is being produced, what has already been committed and what needs to be insured.

KEU's Advertisement Cancellation Insurance Solution can provide protection where a shoot is cancelled, abandoned or postponed following insured circumstances beyond the insured's control. Only declared amounts can be considered in the event of a claim, making accurate information at placement stage essential. T's and C's apply.

Specialised equipment rarely stays in one place.

Where it is stored, how it moves, and the way it is used can all affect how the risk needs to be assessed.

In this short, Iola Edmayr looks at some of the practical considerations that can influence the placement of specialised equipment cover.

From community events and school functions to smaller markets and similar gatherings, the focus remains on matching the insurance solution to the actual event and its exposures. T's and C's apply.
