If you’re in business, like us you’re probably very protective of it, and rightly so! You’ve worked hard to get your business off the ground and make it the success it is and like anything you’re fond of, you’ll want the very best for it. So why would you not properly insure it? As well as trying to run your business, there’s a lot to think about when considering what needs covering; stock, buildings, employees, tools, finished goods, the list goes on…
A commercial combined insurance policy will make this process much easier; combining all the covers you need into one policy with one insurer.
What can be covered in a Commercial Combined insurance policy?
Typically, we’ll provide a policy that can include cover for:
Buildings
Office contents
Machinery
Fixtures and fittings
Glass
Stock
Goods in transit
Loss of gross profit
Public Liability
Products Liability
Employers Liability
Tools
Legal Expenses
According to the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors and the Building Cost Information Service, as much as 80% of all UK businesses are ‘underinsured’. Underinsurance can cause an insurer to apply the average clause in the event of a claim, meaning you’ll only receive that percentage of cover you purchased in relation to the actual real cost of replacement. As an example, if you declare your rebuild cost to be £1m and the real cost turns out to be £2m, that’s 50% underinsurance and therefore a 50% reduction to your original policy cover, you’ll only receive £500k. The chances of a business surviving a major catastrophe when underinsured are dramatically reduced.
Don’t be part of the 80%! Make sure you’re properly covered and if you haven’t carried out a full review of your buildings sum insured, stock levels, gross profits and everything else that relates to your business recently, you should do so as soon as possible.
