At the scale these corporations operate, does it even make sense to insure against theft? The overhead must be significant and on other side premiums should pretty much always be more than claimed.

I would expect that insurance carriers get involved because the load passes through so many hands. Each "hand" needs their own insurance so that they won't just walk off with the load.

However, if it gets expensive enough, I would expect that the parent companies will start to self-insure.
