Business Owners Policies: Coverage for Small Business Owners

 

Most small business owners find a solution for their most essential insurance needs in a business owners policy, also called a BOP. A BOP is a package of coverage that comes with appropriately designed terms and policy limits to maximize benefits for the small business owner.

 

Often, BOPs contain three essential types of commercial insurance:

 

Property Insurance

Following unexpected or unavoidable problems that impact the business, this coverage can help you pay to repair or replace damaged property.Coverage might pay for damage from fires, severe weather, vandalism, theft or a variety of other losses.Some of the items it might cover include your buildings, furnishings, equipment, machinery, stock and certain personal possessions inside.

 

General Liability Insurance

Running a business requires proper risk management for the sake of your customers and others. If you were to accidentally harm someone, then you might have a responsibility to repay them for their losses. General liability insurance can pay for a variety of third-party bodily injuries, property damage, product injuries, completed operations liability and personal injuries. Additionally, it can provide the business with legal assistance in case of liability lawsuits.

 

Business Interruption Insurance

Though a BOP is a great starting point for most business owners, most businesses benefit further by getting expanded coverage, such as:

 

In many cases, you can get some of this coverage as part of a BOP itself. In other cases, you will have to buy separate insurance policies alongside the BOP. The key to getting the right coverage is to talk to your insurance agent about the size and scope of your operation.

 

Don’t Qualify for a BOP? Consider a Commercial Package Policy

 

BOPs are applicable only to smaller businesses, usually those making less than $1 million in profit each year and employing only a few people. As your business grows, there is a chance that you might outgrow the BOP. Additionally, if you work in a high-risk industry, a BOP might not provide you with the proper risk management, either.

 

If you need expanded coverage, you might benefit from a commercial package policy, also called a CPP. This is a package of business insurance similar to a BOP, but it provides more customizable coverage options that are often better suited to larger operations.
