Kidnapping is a perennial threat, especially in countries that are rich in natural
resources but poor in social fabric, where law enforcement is weak and the judiciary
is vulnerable. Corruption becomes the rule rather than the exception, and financial
extortion through kidnapping is big business.
Getting Ahead of the Threat
USSC, Inc. provides its clients with the tools they need to mitigate the risk
of abduction and to manage a kidnap situation, should one arise. Our professional
team begins by providing our clients with their best defense - prevention through
a customized training and educational program. We prepare clients for the experience
of abduction, including the psychological effects of illegal captivity and the
management of a kidnap negotiation. In the unfortunate event of a kidnapping,
we are available around-the-clock for skilled advice and counsel. If needed, we
can also handle the repatriation of kidnap victims.
Protecting Your Assets
USSC, Inc. helps its clients select a policy that protects against financial
and accidental loss. Such policies and their providers vary widely in their level
of service and coverage, and it is important to find insurance that suits the
client's individual circumstance. Our professional team assists clients in negotiating
the maze of special risk insurance and getting the coverage they need.
The coverage may include:
- Ransom for Kidnapping
- Ransom for Extortion
- Ransom for Property Damage Extortion
