Environmental Insurance

(By: Michael Lang, Ph.D. Michigan State University)

The insurance industry is beginning to provide environmental insurance that offers financial protection against the risks associated with ongoing operations, site remediation, and property transfers. The major insurance companies in the environmental field include AIG, Zurich, ECS (Reliance), Kemper and United Capitol. Because each case may be unique, it is recommended to seek the assistance of experienced professionals.

In general, Environmental Insurance may cover one of the following three areas: 1) environmental risks associated with on-going operations; 2) environmental risks associated with site remediation; or 3) environmental risks associated with property transfers.
