Guide To Incoterms 2000

Guide to Incoterms 2000
Incoterms 2000 are a set of internationally recognised trading terms, defined by

the International Chamber of Commerce in publication number 560 Incoterms
2000, which are used for the purchase and shipping of goods across borders.
They deal with the documents required for global trade, specifying which
parties (buyer or seller) are responsible for which documents and are normally
specified in the contract of sale.
This guide is designed to provide a simplified reference. We recommend that

the full text of the above document be consulted prior to entering into a
contract to buy or sell goods.

ACE European Marine Group
In 1792, the Insurance Company of North America

(INA) insured the proud ship “America” as she
navigated the wintry seas from Philadelphia to
Londonderry. Risk Management services were
provided by hiring a tug to assist the vessel to leave the
Delaware River safely.
In 1999, ACE Insurance purchased the successor

companies to the INA and continues the superior
tradition of marine insurance, risk management and
loss control services to its clients.
In 2001 ACE European Group was created combining

the businesses of ACE Global Markets and ACE
Insurance Company of Europe. The Marine business of
these two companies is combined under one
management but allows our customers to access two
distribution channels, Lloyds and the company market.
ACE European Marine Group employs a team of

transportation professionals with experience in
shipping, ship management, freight forwarding, and
container operations. They are assisted by surveyors
from other ACE worldwide companies (USA, Asia
Pacific, Latin America), the ACE network of marine
underwriters and claims adjusters and a panel of
independent survey agents.
The group is dedicated to providing latest information

on transportation and its risks to ACE Underwriters,
Brokers and Clients.
