Abstract
This article pretends to establish, parting from an analysis from the courts rulings from different countries, how the liability limitations contained in international conventions or in the local law are applied in each jurisdiction. From this analysis, this article tries to create a panorama for insurance companies that exploit transportation insurance regarding the possibility to recuperate part of the indemnization when acting or pursuing against the transporter.
