Typically purchased as a package policy to protect against three core areas;

• Buildings and contents – in the same way as you protect your home and contents, this provides cover for your business premises, furniture, computers, etc.
  
  
• Employers and Public Liability – employers liability is compulsory if you have employees within your business whilst public liability provides protection against the risk of a visitor to your business injuring themselves whilst visiting your premises. In both cases, the policy cover will provide benefits to defend a claim brought against you.
  
  
• Business Interruption – provides benefits to compensate your business if you are unable to use your premises for a variety of reasons e.g. flood, physical damage, denial of access etc.

The sections of cover included in a policy will be tailored to meet the requirements of your own business, so that the cover included, as well as the level of benefits provided, are relevant to your own circumstances.

Additional coverage is often available within a Business Insurance policy, such as Legal Expenses cover to fund the costs of obtaining advice against employment disputes, property issues, tax investigation etc.  Alternatively, such covers can be arranged as a stand alone policy, often providing more significant levels of cover.

Cyber crime is an increasing risk to businesses and individuals alike.  High profile ransomware attacks now regularly hit the headlines, but that is the tip of the iceberg.  Crimes against individuals and small business are common place.  Insurance polices will provide invaluable expert help, financial recompense to fund repairs, assist in recovering losses from fraud, deal with cases of identity theft etc.

Like any insurance, a cyber policy won’t remove the fact that you need to take your own measures to protect yourself e.g. anti virus, back ups etc, but for a relatively small premium, the ability to protect your computers, data and identity in the event of a crime against you or your business could prove crucial.

We live in an increasingly litigious society.  A Legal Expenses policy will provide access to legal experts to assist you in defending yourself, meet the costs involved often including any awards made against you.  Whether cover is purchased on a commercial or personal basis, cover will typically be provided across a range of areas of potential dispute such as HMRC Investigations, Statutory Licence, Regulation/Compliance, Employment, Property etc.
