We've recently started exporting to Europe from our small manufacturing unit. Our freight forwarder says the shipment is covered under their basic cargo insurance, but our bank is asking us to submit a separate marine insurance certificate for the consignment.

Is this a standard requirement, or is the forwarder's cover usually not enough for banks or export documentation? If you've dealt with this before, did you end up taking your own marine cargo policy as well, or was there another way to satisfy the bank?
Would appreciate hearing how others have handled this.
