The Swedish Club is in line to be hit by insurance claims linked to Iran's move to seize a Stena Bulk tanker on Friday.

It has emerged that the Gothenburg-based mutual provides war risk insurance and protection and indemnity cover to the 50,000-dwt Stena Impero (built 2018).

The Swedish Club is also acting as claims lead for hull and machinery cover with Norway’s Gard also listed among its marine insurers.
