Following a long legal battle before the Norwegian courts, the Court of Appeal has dismissed a claim by the owners of the vessel “Champion Express” for a constructive total loss (“CTL”) under the Nordic Plan. 
Wikborg Rein acted for the insurers in what has been the first Norwegian judgment on CTL since the now 31-year-old ND-1992-172 Berglift judgment.

The Nordic Marine Insurance Plan of 2013, version 2023, has recently been approved following negotiations between the Nordic shipowner associations and the Nordic Association of Marine Insurers.
