What is All Risk Insurance, and Why Does It Matter?

All risk insurance (also called portable possessions cover) protects specific high-value items you take with you daily.

Unlike standard home contents insurance, which mainly covers items inside your home, all risk cover follows your belongings wherever you go.

Whether it’s your smartphone slipping out your pocket, a laptop stolen from your car, or jewellery lost while travelling — all risk insurance ensures you’re financially protected.

Without it, many of your most valuable everyday items may not be covered when you need it most.
