Trang 3Transportation plays a critical role in the thorough integration of countries into theglobal economy, contributing to the promotion of commerce and the enhancement oftrade cooperation between countries and regions In particular, sea transport accountsfor the majority of the proportion of import and export trade goods, which is anessential method to ensure the stability of the international circulation and tradeexchange process However, to have successful sea journeys and minimize risks andlosses, shippers, ship owners, banks, and other related parties frequently participate
in marine insurance services, with special attention paid to hull insurance, as thenumber of vessels is rapidly increasing, the volume is large and modern, and the risk
of a collision is also increasing If the loss occurs, the damage value is relativelylarge, both material damage and related costs
As a result, we conduct extensive study into the legislation, necessary theoreticalknowledge, and the perfection of the professional system with this type of insurancewill have a substantial impact on insurance companies' and insurance companies'commercial performance, ship owners, carriers, charterers, and even other partiesconcerning the consignment transported by sea
To apply the knowledge of the subject “Risk management and Insurance” intopractice, and concurrently obtain our background in this professional field, Group 6
decided to choose the topic "Analyze Hull Insurance business of PVI Insurance Corporation in 2019 - 2021".

Trang 5CHAPTER I Theoretical Framework of Hull Insurance
1.1 Definition and subject matter
1.1.1 Definition
Hull insurance is one of the main types of marine insurance policies available in themarketplace It covers a broad range of damages on a vessel's hull, machinery, andequipment, which in turn gives the vessel owner a level of confidence and security inoperating their yacht/ship on international waters
1.1.2 Subject matter
- The ship, the machinery and the equipment
- Some liabilities, normally collision liabilities with another ship (Running DownClause)
- Liabilities for colliding with objects other than a normal ship (Fixed and FloatingObjects)
- Salvage Charges and General Average Contributions
1.2 Claim Settlement
1.2.1 Types of Losses in Hull Insurance
Loss is damage, broken status happened to the insured objects under the risks In the marine insurance, there are two following loss types:
- Based on loss severity: Two types
● Partial loss: damage to a part of insured objects
● Total loss: damage to the total value of insured objects
- Based on liability classification
● General average
● Partial average
Trang 6In special cases, the Insurer can not appoint their adjuster to the site, the insured isallowed to invite the adjusters in the area of accident provided these adjusters areaccepted by the State authorities.
1.2.3 Principles of Claim Settlement in Hull Insurance
Claim settlement amount of the insurer is limited within sum insured
Special cases are ones when the total cost of minimizing and protecting costs,adjustment cost, fees for General Average under the coverage are higher than thesum insured In this case, the insurer will pay all
Claim amount will be paid by money, not in kind The type of currency applied forclaim settlement is currency used to collect premium
When the insurer compensates, the insurer has the right to deduct the sum of moneycollected by the insured when the insured settles the remaining property or getsrecovered from the third party
After paying the claim amount, the insurer has the right to collect money from thethird party for the liability to compensate for the loss within the amount paid
1.2.4 Exclusion in Hull Insurance
Losses of insured objects which are not covered
The insurer is not responsible for loss caused from intentional acts or too carelessactions of insured However, the Insurer is responsible for loss caused fromnegligence or errors of the captain, crews or navigator during the process of
Trang 7When insuring for ships and freight, the insurer is not responsible for the followinglosses :
- The ship does not have full safety conditions at the time of departure, exceptfor the case when the ship has inside defects even though the insured has paiddue attention
- Cargo on board is flammable and explosive or has other dangerous stuffwhich is not suitable with regulations for carrying These types of cargo arenot advised to the Insurer
If there is no other agreement in the insurance contract, the insurer is not responsiblefor loss due to war or army activities, strike, riot, requisition, confiscation, arresting,destroying or under the order of army force or under the decision of State authorities
1.2.5 Reduction in Indemnity
The reduction of claim amount is applied to refuse the indemnity with the amountappointed under the percentage in total claim amount The reduction of claim amountincludes two types:
- Franchise: when the loss happens, the loss reaches the regulated percentage,the Insurer has to pay all
- Deductible: The Insurer will deduct the fixed percentage for the loss over theregulated extent
The target:
- The Insurer will not pay for too small losses in comparison to total insuredvalue The loss amount is not equivalent to claim settlement based on timeand costs aspects
- There is a part of the rate from the sum loss amount for the Insured It meansthe Insured bears a part of liability in loss
At the time being, due to the high competition in the market, insurance companiesrarely apply the reduction of loss in order to hold clients This will be applied tospecial cargo and high loss frequency

2.1.2 Introduction to Hull Insurance Business
As a leading marine insurer, PVI Insurance is a trusted partner of Vietnam’s largestmarine fleets operating both on in-land waterways and international ocean shippingroutes with wide experience in providing insurance services in the fields ofshipbuilding, ship repair, operation of ocean vessels, mobile drilling units, floatingstorage units and floating production storage units
The processing procedure of insurance in general, as well as hull and P&I inparticular, include the following stages: exploitation, assessment, and indemnificationfor loss and damage, together with the stage of prevention and mitigation of losses.These stages are interrelated and have important implications for the effectiveness ofhull insurance The division into such specific work stages, along with theinterrelation of all these stages
Trang 15helps us to accurately assess the effectiveness of each stage, in order to complete theoperation of the company.
● Exploitation stage
Steps in the insurance exploitation stage
- Step 1: Receive information from customers
- Step 2: Research, analyze and risk assessment
- Step 3: Propose an insurance plan
- Step 4: Negotiate and accept insurance
- Step 5: Issue insurance policy
- Step 6: Monitor and receive new solutions
Exploitation result
During PVI’s years of operation in the market, PVI has affirmed its leading position inthe whole market with a stable market share and great growth potential The exploitation

Trang 16From 2019 - 2021, the situation of performing hull insurance and P&I insurancebusiness has been very positive Gross insurance premiums have increased steadilyover the years There was a sharp increase in the growth rate of premium up to 48.21%
in 2018
● Loss prevention and mitigation stage
Preventing and mitigating loss can be done by applying many measures, such as keeping customers’ files and calculating expenses for this work

The results of the Company's loss prevention and mitigation are reflected in the budgetfor prevention and reduction of loss, which was in regulation with the current law, andincreased in conjunction with gross insurance premium
● Assessment stage
The first problem that insurance companies in general and PVI in particular, areconcerned with is the assessment stage If the exploitation stage creates a premise forthe implementation of the next two stages, the loss assessment stage is an important
Trang 17step in bringing trust to PVI's customers, which will create favorable conditions for the final stage of the hull insurance - the stage of compensation settlement.

The cost of assessment per case has decreased gradually over the years This provesthat the Company always pays attention to the inspection work, for example: theexpertise of the assessors has been improved and the assessor team has beenstrengthened nationwide
In the maritime sector, the market value of ships also fluctuates by a relatively largemargin, so most marine insurance policies are either fixed-price or agreed-uponpolicies Accordingly, the contract value is agreed by the insurer and the insured as
Trang 18the actual value of the insured property Once the value has been agreed, it cannot bechanged unless another agreement is reached or the insurer can prove it is fraudulent.
Financial Performance of Hull Insurance
This sector accounted for 14.6% of total revenue of PVI in 2021, equivalent to VND512.69 billion

(Source: AVI, PVI, PSI’s compilation)
In 2021, PVI was the second leading firm in this segment with 28.54% market share,running after Bao Viet at 29.33% Revenue growth rate of this sector declined from48.2% in 2019 to 13.7% in 2020 and to 10.6% in 2021 due to the economic downturnand increased freight rate that shipping companies had to bear As a result, revenuegrowth rate slowed down while industry average came at 24.2% per year
At that time, this segment is encountering some difficulties due to the TransportationIndustry in particular and the Shipbuilding Industry in general since the economiccrisis in 2019 up to 2021 Shipbuilding firms’ orders were delayed, leading to aslowdown in growth rate of the insurance premium The 1,680 registered transportvessels operating are providing a stable source of customers for insurance service.The market segment’s leaders include PVI with 29.1% market share, Bao Viet
