Bus/Financial - Insurance
French term or phrase: Valeur C.M
Hello,
I am working on an insurance poilcy for large ships, and am having problems with the following terms. These terms show up in charts on several occasions...

Valeur C.M en USD
Prime C.M en USD
Valeur B.A en USD
Prime B.A en USD

Would anyone have any guesses as to what the C.M and the B.A could stand for?
I have searched the document and have not been able to find anything.

Thanks a million!

neutral  Julie Barber: I'm at a bit of a loss as to how BA would be a term used in finance, when you say it means Boeing Corporation (even though that makes BC), leading to the stock exchange and how it all ties into to shipping / insurance....!
