Tailored Business Owner’s Policy

A business owner’s policy (BOP) combines general liability and commercial property insurance, offering strong, affordable coverage for small to medium-sized businesses. It simplifies insurance while guarding against typical business risks.

At Statewide Commercial Insurance Brokers, we understand the unique challenges and risks that business owners face every day. Business owner’s policy is designed to blend the critical coverages you need into one seamless package, ensuring that you can focus on what you do best: growing your business.

What Does a Business Owner’s Policy Cover?

  • General liability insurance: Protects your business from liability claims involving bodily injury, property damage, and personal injury that can occur during your business operations. This coverage is crucial for defending against lawsuits and claims from third parties.
  • Commercial property insurance: Protect your physical assets, including your building, equipment, inventory, and furniture from damage or loss due to fire, theft, vandalism, or explosions.
  • Business interruption insurance: This coverage provides financial assistance for lost income and additional expenses if your business is temporarily unable to operate due to a covered loss.

The Risks of Operating Without a Business Owner’s Policy

Without a business owner’s policy, your company is at significant risk. You would be financially responsible for any liability claims involving bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury during business operations, which could lead to costly lawsuits. Additionally, any damage or loss to your physical assets, such as your building, equipment, and inventory, would need to be covered out of pocket, potentially resulting in severe financial strain. Furthermore, in the event of a temporary business closure due to a covered loss, you would not receive financial assistance for lost income and additional expenses, jeopardizing your business’s ability to recover and continue operations.
