Libya is in turmoil as different factions vie for power and violence is widespread. These conditions mean that the limitations or exclusions that are contained in many standard insurance policies may invalidate policy coverage in the current situation.
The partial civil uprising in early 2011 and the resulting NATO action, under the UN Security Council Resolution 1973, means that individuals and organisations operating in Libya should seriously consider making provision for their Libya insurance to include War and Terrorism cover.

Nigeria is considered a dynamic emerging market with an abundant supply of natural resources and a well-developed financial, legal, communications, transport sectors and stock exchange.
However levels of corruption, economic mismanagement and ethnic and religious tensions, along with fragile security conditions, are a source of growing concern for investors. Attacks by groups aimed at gaining a larger share of the country’s oil wealth have now started to stretch beyond the Delta region – even affecting the capital, Abuja. The risk of kidnappings in Nigeria is also apparent, together with other armed attacks in the Niger Delta to ships and oil rigs at sea off the coast of the Delta.

Since the collapse of the central government in 1991, Somalia has been subject to widespread violence and instability.
A Transitional Federal Government (TFG) was established in 2004 to guide the country to a more representative government. However, the TFG remains fragile and lacks the capacity to provide services in Somalia. The foreign terrorist group al-Shabaab attacks the TFG and its allied forces regularly in Mogadishu and in regions outside the capital, and commits terrorist acts throughout Somalia, including kidnapping for ransom. Inter- and intra-clan violence also frequently occurs throughout the country.
In 1991, the northwest part of the country proclaimed itself the Republic of Somaliland and maintains a separate regional governing authority; however, Somaliland has not received international recognition as an independent state. The northeastern section of Somalia, known as the semi-autonomous region of Puntland, has also made efforts to establish a regional governing authority but has not claimed independence. Somalia’s economy was seriously damaged by the civil war and its aftermath, but the private sector is trying to reemerge. Tourist facilities are non-existent.
Whether you are a journalist working in the field or if you work for a commercial company operating in Somalia, we have specialist insurances that will cover your needs.

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) advises against travel to Sudan for security reasons.
With reference to the security situation in Sudan, the FCDO is closely monitoring the situation in Khartoum and other parts of Sudan where there are ongoing military clashes. There is now fighting in various locations across Sudan. Khartoum International Airport is currently closed. We can still provide Personal Accident cover in Sudan but it is on a case by case basis.
On 9 July 2011, South Sudan seceded from Sudan. There are political tensions and unresolved issues between the two countries which has resulted in general civil unrest. A product of this discontent has seen kidnapping, piracy and a general threat of terrorism notably targeting foreign workers and foreign interests making specialist and comprehensive insurance essential.
Before considering any travel to South Sudan , travel advice should be carefully considered, All companies and individuals should keep up to date with the latest security situation and register locally with the British Embassy Juba. The capacity of the Embassy to provide consular assistance is limited due to the terrain and security constraints. Make sure you have comprehensive contingency plans including a stock of essential supplies and up-to-date travel documents and visas.
There are a number of risks to be considered when taking out Sudan insurance. Terrorist groups are known to be at large in Sudan and have targeted foreign nationals and interests, including oil and gas companies.
Ambush and kidnapping is a constant threat in areas like Darfur, particularly for those working in a humanitarian capacity. In Khartoum and other urban centres demonstrations, often violent, often anti-western, can suddenly erupt in public places. Off the coast there have also been increasing incidents of piracy.
