Travel insurance varies enormously from one country to another and in some countries, it is very difficult to find travel insurance that covers missed connections on separate tickets.
I searched Squaremouth.com and found a whole bunch of travel insurance policies that include trip delay coverage -- many of which are available to non-US citizens/non-US residents, and so would be available to [MENTION=234278]Xandrios[/MENTION]
Here was one basic search I conducted:

Most of them included trip delay coverage of $250 - $500 USD per person per day, after 6 - 12 hours of delay, for a premium of anywhere between $4 - $160 USD. Trip delay was only one of the benefits offered by most of those policies. (For my sample search I used the example of a young man on a cheap trip for a short period of time.)
Also, as others have mentioned, even some credit cards offered by European banks include trip delay among their benefits.
