Choose the Best Types of Business Insurance
General liability coverage helps protect your business and its assets in the event of a lawsuit for things like negligence, bodily injury, property damage, libel and slander.
Who it’s for: Businesses that work directly with customers or customers’ property, and any businesses who advertise.
Most state laws require you to carry this insurance to help compensate employees for expenses associated with work-related injuries or illnesses, like medical bills, rehabilitation and lost wages.
Who it’s for: Businesses with any part- or full-time employees.
Professional liability insurance helps protect you and your company if you’re found negligent in the professional services you provided to a client, even if you didn’t make a mistake.
Who it’s for: Businesses that provide professional services or advice to clients or customers.
Business property insurance, also called commercial property insurance, helps protect your owned or rented building, tools and the equipment you use to operate your business.
Who it’s for: Businesses with property or assets.
Commercial auto insurance helps cover the cost of an auto accident if you or your employee is at fault. If you or your employees drive a vehicle for business reasons, having the right commercial vehicle insurance is important.
Who it’s for: Businesses that use any company-owned, leased or personal vehicles for work.
Cyber insurance provides businesses with liability coverage and helps pay the costs to prepare for and respond to cyber threats, including data privacy, network security, extortion threats, cybercrime and other critical cyber risks.
Who it’s for: Businesses that run a website or manage a network.
Many business owners start with a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) because its three essential coverages help protect businesses from common claims. A BOP includes general liability insurance, commercial property and business income insurance. Looking for company insurance policies tailored to your needs? Our BOP policy can be bundled with additional types of coverages to help your business save money on insurance. In some cases, our BOP may be eligible for a discount up to 10% when bundled with workers’ compensation insurance.
