Protect the property of your business.

The first type of coverage in a BOP is property insurance. Property insurance may cover risks associated with your premises, equipment, and vehicles. In addition, it may often include any associated loss of business. This is essential coverage because it may help protect your business, assets, and income. For instance, here are a few of the coverages to consider in your business owners insurance policy:

  • Accidental Damage
  • Fire
  • Flood
  • Loss of Income
  • Property Loss/Damage
  • Theft

Get liability coverage for your business.

The second type of coverage in a BOP is business liability insurance. Business liability insurance may cover personal injuries to people you deal with and damages to their property. However, it’s important to note that liability insurance usually doesn’t cover risks related to professional services—meaning damages that result from you giving clients inaccurate advice, for instance. The liability coverage included in your business owners insurance policy is important, especially if:

  • You meet your clients at your business or theirs.
  • You have physical access to your clients’ equipment.
  • There is a risk of injury to people or damage to their property.

Insurance coverage for your specific business.

Getting a business owners insurance policy means covering these risks in a single policy, which may significantly reduce stress and help bring you peace of mind. Policies are typically tailored to help cover your specific needs, and pricing varies depending on your business. However, it’s usually cheaper than buying separate policies for both commercial property and liability coverage.

Understanding your unique business needs.

Finding a business owners policy that works for your specific business is important so you can help protect your business, income, and assets. With this protection, you can worry less about the risks involved in your business day-to-day, and put more of a focus on the future of your business.
