IMIU was established in 1995 and has developed an extensive portfolio of business, which includes some of the world’s largest mining conglomerates and also some of the mining industry minnows. We offer a broad range of coverage for all aspects of the mining industry’s activities, including associated downstream processing. Our company has become one of the leading global insurers/reinsurers for this class of business and underwrites businesses located throughout the world. 

The industry experience of our risk engineers, combined with the specialist knowledge of our underwriting team, enables IMIU to identify comprehensive risk reduction strategies and provide competitive insurance products tailored to the individual needs of our clients. 

IMIU is owned by, and underwrites exclusively on behalf of, Inter Hannover, a non-life insurance company, that is in turn wholly owned by Hannover Re (the World’s 3rd largest reinsurer).

The rating agencies most relevant to the insurance industry have awarded Inter Hannover very strong insurer financial strength ratings (Standard & Poor's AA- "Very Strong" and A.M. Best A "Excellent").
