International risks

International business offers opportunities, but also comes with specific risks. Working across borders means you are confronted with different laws, higher security risks, and complex situations that can have a direct impact on your employees and your company.

With specialized insurance for internationally active companies, you protect yourself against these risks. Van Dessel supports you with tailored solutions and international expertise, so you can continue to do business with confidence, anywhere in the world.

What does this insurance cluster entail?

The cluster for internationally active companies focuses on risks that arise when your business has employees, activities, or projects across borders. Think of traveling to high-risk areas, working abroad, or exposure to geopolitical tensions and security threats. 

These risks require a specific approach. Local legislation, cultural differences, and diverse risks often make standard solutions insufficient. That’s why it is essential to work with a partner who can operate internationally and has access to local expertise. Thanks to our presence in strong international networks such as Brokerslink, Asinta, Trust Risk Control, MIN Media Insurance Network, and Aesis Network, we can analyze risks worldwide and offer solutions that align with your activities, regardless of the country in which you operate.
