Understanding the Nuances of Global Mobility Insurance for Canadian Firms in Kenya
For Canadian multinational corporations engaging in projects or expanding their presence in Kenya, comprehensive global mobility insurance is not merely an option but a necessity.

Cost Considerations and Practical Implementation in Kenya
The cost of baggage and delay cover for global mobility can vary significantly based on factors like the duration of the assignment, the number of employees covered, the value of insured items, and the specific destinations, including Kenya. While precise figures require a detailed risk assessment, businesses can expect premiums to be a fraction of potential loss or disruption costs. For instance, a comprehensive policy might add a marginal percentage to the overall cost of an international assignment, potentially ranging from KES 50,000 to KES 200,000 per employee annually, depending on the scope. It's vital to compare quotes and understand policy limits and deductibles. Getso Consultants can assist in evaluating these costs within the broader project budget.
