The increasing sophistication of cargo crime

2. April 2026

Cargo crime has existed in most regions of the world for centuries. Until relatively recently, it has usually taken the form of theft, sometimes with aggression.

This podcast explores the topic with the expert input of Thortsen Neumann, President & CEO of the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA EMEA) and Björn Hartong, Global Head of Risk Engineering Marine, Security & Supply Chain at Zurich Insurance. Björn is also a member of the IUMI Loss Prevention Committee.
