Who We Are

TTM Risk (Tradesure Transit and Marine) is a South African-based specialist underwriting manager providing marine, cargo, and transport-related insurance solutions. Backed by New National Assurance Company, we work exclusively with short-term insurance brokers to deliver technical, responsive cover that aligns with the real-world risks their clients face.

With decades of combined experience in logistics and insurance underwriting, we understand the complexities of moving goods — and the importance of fast, reliable support. Whether it’s Goods in Transit, Marine Cargo, Contingent Liability, or niche cover like Boat Builders Risk, we don’t just underwrite risk — we help you manage it confidently.


What Sets Us Apart

  • Direct Access to Decision-Makers
    No gatekeepers. No endless email loops. Our brokers speak directly to experienced underwriters who understand the industry and make fast, informed decisions.

  • Same-Day Quotes & Fast Claims Handling
    Time matters in your business. We commit to quoting on the same day and providing claim resolutions with fairness and urgency.

  • Tailored, Flexible Solutions
    We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Our products are custom-built around your clients’ operations, with flexible terms and practical cover extensions.

  • Local Expertise with Global Thinking
    We understand the Southern African logistics environment — from cross-border trucking to international freight. Our global reinsurance partnerships provide further peace of mind.

  • No Premium Thresholds
    Whether you place one policy or one hundred, we’ll treat you with the same care and professionalism. No minimums. No red tape.


Our Commitment

We are committed to building lasting partnerships with our brokers, based on trust, transparency, and performance. At TTM Risk, we measure success by how confidently you can serve your clients — with speed, clarity, and reliability behind you.

When you work with us, you gain more than an insurer. You gain a risk partner who listens, acts, and delivers.
