Prioritize your Safety

Designed to protect you and your family against one of the most distressing risks.

Kidnap & Ransom Insurance

Kidnap, extortion, and wrongful detention are not risks confined to war zones or remote regions. High-net-worth individuals, frequent international travellers, public figures, and their families can be targeted anywhere in the world. The consequences of such an incident without the right support in place can be devastating, both financially and emotionally.

The decisions made in the early hours and days of an incident can have a profound impact on its outcome — making access to specialist crisis response support not just valuable, but critical. Kidnap & Ransom Insurance provides individuals and their families with a comprehensive safety net — covering ransom payments, specialist crisis response consultancy, legal costs, and the medical and psychological support needed to recover in the aftermath of an incident. 

At GSIB, we arrange Kidnap & Ransom cover tailored to your lifestyle, and the specific risks you and your family face.

FAQ

What does Personal Kidnap & Ransom Insurance cover?
Personal Kidnap & Ransom Insurance covers the financial costs and specialist support services associated with a kidnap, extortion, or wrongful detention affecting you or a member of your family. This includes ransom payments, 24/7 crisis response consultancy, legal costs, medical and psychological support, and access to specialist investigators and personal security advisors.
This cover is particularly relevant for high-net-worth individuals and their families, frequent international travellers, especially those who visit higher-risk regions, public figures, senior executives, and individuals with a significant public or social media profile.
Kidnap & Ransom Insurance policies are issued under strict confidentiality obligations. The existence of your policy is never disclosed publicly. Confidentiality is a fundamental principle of how this cover works.
Your family should contact GSIB’s emergency line immediately. They should not attempt to handle the situation alone, contact the perpetrators independently, or make any public statements before speaking to the crisis response team. Every decision made in the early stages of an incident is critical, and your specialist crisis consultants will take over from the very first call — guiding your family through the response with the expertise and calm that the situation demands.
Yes — Personal Kidnap & Ransom Insurance typically provides worldwide coverage, but generally excludes countries subject to government-issued travel bans, international sanctions, or active conflict zones where travel is officially advised against.
