What is Business Contents Insurance?*

Such policies may cover damage caused by theft, fire, stolen money, vandalism or malicious damage, smoke damage, storm damage and rain or water damage, depending on the terms of the policy.

Some types of business contents policies may also include coverage when accidental damage to equipment occurs (up to an agreed amount) and may also cover reasonable expenses incurred when you lose important business information (such as accounting details) that need to be re-created.

Business contents insurance is important when you consider the consequences of losing the tools and equipment you use in your business and the impact this could have on your income and clients if you were without them – even for a short time.

If you run a home-based business, you should also be aware that most home contents insurance policies do not cover tools and equipment used for business purposes.
