Theft insurance for equestrian equipment

Your saddle, bridle, and other riding equipment often represent a significant value. With theft insurance, you protect your gear against the financial consequences of theft, so you can quickly get back on track.

We help you put together insurance that matches the value of your equipment and the way you use it.

What is an insurance policy against theft of equestrian equipment?

A theft insurance for equestrian equipment protects your valuable gear against the financial consequences of theft. This includes saddles, bridles, harnesses, blankets, and other materials you use for the care, training, or sport with your horse.

Depending on the selected policy, you can insure your equipment against theft from a locked stable, tack room, vehicle, or other insured location. This way, a theft does not have to result in a major financial setback.
