Marine insurance is defined as a contract in which the insurer agrees to compensate the insured, in accordance with agreed terms and extent, for marine losses related to maritime risks. This insurance contract can be expanded, under explicit conditions based on commercial practices, to cover losses occurring in inland waters or associated land-based risks.
