Kish P&I Club was founded by a group of Iranian owners on Kish Island which is located off the Persian Gulf. The Club Directors, who are from different fields of marine industry, have pooled their financial eligibility into a club to indemnify their liabilities within international and different ports' jurisdictions or territorial waters. The Club entry includes foreign going tankers and cargo ships of various sizes with excellent loss records.

The Iranian shipping companies, which are participating in the formation of the Club, are among well- known carriers of wet and dry cargoes.

The Club managers concentrate mainly on the Loss Prevention issues. The main goal of the Club management is to reduce the possibility of recurrence of the incidents, which have resulted in raising loss claims within the insured fleet.

The Club is capable of covering the shipowners’ liabilities up to USD 500,000 and has reinsured their liabilities above USD 500,000 up to USD 1,000,000,000 within Iranian Insurance Market which is headed by the Central Insurance of Iran.
