As the EU prepares its 21st round of sanctions targeting insurers and maritime services, the real twist is that these very systems remain deeply entwined with Europe’s own financial infrastructure. With thousands of voyages needing coverage—and billions in potential liability—Russia’s workaround may be more resilient than expected, even as analysts warn that some insurers might not have the capital to absorb the risk. Tracing the money trail is nearly impossible due to opaque ownership structures, forcing experts to stay silent for fear of legal exposure. Insurance, the hidden backbone of this illicit trade, remains a critical—and elusive—target in Europe’s ongoing battle against sanctions evasion.
