Helvetia and Breeze Partner for Cargo Insurance

Helvetia Global Solutions and Breeze partnered to deliver tailored cargo insurance solutions to the global logistics market.

This collaboration combines Breeze’s technological expertise with Helvetia’s international transport insurance experience to enhance customer protection.

Breeze’s digital platform integrates directly into freight forwarders’ systems, streamlining workflows and enabling efficient cargo insurance offerings.

Key features of the platform include:

Automated and Data-Driven Underwriting: Utilizing data and underwriting criteria provided by Helvetia, the platform instantly underwrites and generates quotes for each shipment, typically within seconds.
Efficient Claims Handling: Claims are processed directly on the platform, with simpler cases settled automatically and complex ones escalated for additional review.
Instant information: State of the art dashboards allow easy, timely tracking of goods in shipment, as well as assessing risk profiles and gaining financial and risk related insights.

Founded in 2021, Breeze identified a gap as 70% of global cargo remains uninsured due to workflow challenges.

This exposes shippers to substantial risks and impacts logistics providers’ service offerings.

Breeze developed a cargo insurance platform that integrates seamlessly with logistics players of all sizes, analogue or digital.

By 2024, Breeze’s platform scaled to support hundreds of customers and thousands of shipments, insuring cargo worth millions.
