  • Best available

    We have access to international insurance solutions available for our clients, provided by the best EU insurers.

  • Condition

    The policyholder must be EU legal entity. We can easily add any foreign producer or master producer as additionally insured.

  • Benefits

    When you construct the policy with Croatian company as the policyholder is that there is no tax on this insurance in Croatia, which makes the insurance cheaper.

What are the key differences between US/UK market and EU market when we talk about film insurance?

Workers compensation insurance is not compulsory! Off course we add to our policies the following scope of cover:

Major difference is that local limits for this insurance may be lower than what you are used to on US, Canada or UK markets, but we guarantee that they are sufficient.

Real local medical costs are lower on our market since we have heavy tax for compulsory health insurance which makes medial services much cheaper and lowers your exposure to this risk.

Risk and claims management

Should you suffer a loss on your project, we will be there to support you 24/7.

We will supply all necessary questionnaires and guide you through the process of claim assessment.

Should your claim require the engagement of the loss adjustor, we will support you in the dialogue with him.

We have a medical team to support you during the risk assessment  and claim management process. It is important to have flexible and professional medical support available, which we do through intensive care unit specialist, dr. Ivan Tomić and his company CROMEDIC

If we insure people for nonappearance who are over 75 years old, or if we have the production budget insured over 1 million EUR, the people on the nonappearance list will have to be medically examined prior to the activation of the nonappearance cover.
