# CNA Kidnap and Ransom Insurance

Kidnap, Ransom and Extortion

## Who It’s For

- CNA’s 2012 brochure identifies organizations with overseas travelers or operations among typical buyers and names manufacturers, professional-services firms, hospitals, financial institutions, technology and construction companies. [2](https://www.cna.com/sites/default/files/assets/abcfdcbb-6e1d-4ddc-86b2-510317192f83/KRESSKidnapRansomExtortion_CNA.pdf?fid= "Kidnap, Ransom and Extortion Coverage From CNA") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Historical target examples are not current underwriting rules or eligibility guarantees.)

## Coverage Features

- CNA’s current Management Liability page lists Kidnap, Ransom and Extortion; the older CNA brochure describes insured events including kidnapping, extortion, hijack and detention. [1](https://www.cna.com/products/management-liability "Management Liability Insurance and Professional Liability") [2](https://www.cna.com/sites/default/files/assets/abcfdcbb-6e1d-4ddc-86b2-510317192f83/KRESSKidnapRansomExtortion_CNA.pdf?fid= "Kidnap, Ransom and Extortion Coverage From CNA") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: The current page confirms catalogue membership; 2012 brochure details are historical marketing and may not match current forms.)

## Risk Services

- The brochure describes access to crisis-response services from red24, including security advice and response support. [2](https://www.cna.com/sites/default/files/assets/abcfdcbb-6e1d-4ddc-86b2-510317192f83/KRESSKidnapRansomExtortion_CNA.pdf?fid= "Kidnap, Ransom and Extortion Coverage From CNA") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: The 2012 source does not establish the current vendor arrangement or services attached to a present-day quote.)

## How to Apply

- CNA’s current Management Liability page tells agents to request applications through the Agent Center. [1](https://www.cna.com/products/management-liability "Management Liability Insurance and Professional Liability") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: This is a general management-liability submission direction; the page does not describe a buyer-direct K&R flow.)
