Definition of 'Consignment Insurance'

A class of insurance that covers loss or damage to items that are on consignment, loan, up for auction, or in the process of transfer. The insurance will pay out only if the damage or loss is incurred while the property is not currently being held, maintained, or cared for by the owner. This is a separate form of insurance from that which covers items held in-house as inventory.
