Piracy : an ancient risk with modern faces. — Munich : Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty, 2009

Sumario: The current wave of piracy is receiving a great deal of attention. Even if the ability of pirates to capture headlines far outweighs their ability to capture ships, they represent a very real risk for ships and crews in the regions where they are active. As an insurer, Allianz takes a great interest in working with shipping companies to ensure that people, boats and cargo arrive safely and quickly at their destinations. This report examines critical areas of this threat, including trends, insurance issues, attack methods and risk mitigation. No study on the subject can be exhaustive because it is highly complex and the situation is changing all the time
