When comparing public liability insurance cover there are many factors for you to consider. Here are some of the most important considerations when you are after a public liability policy to protect you for your business activities.

Are you rated correctly based on your business pursuits? Will the policy cover you for your business activities? For example, if you are classified by your insurer as a handyman but perform occasional roofing, you may need to adjust your cover to ensure it provides protection for all your projects.
How does the insurer you are considering handle your claims? After an incident, you want fast, professional claims service. You want a carrier that knows the risks you face.
Will your broker advocate for you after a claim? You may find that with an agent they represent the insurer. We are brokers, which means we work for you – our client.
What does your policy include and exclude in its language? Endorsements can change your policy by providing cover or reducing or eliminating cover.
What are the sub-limits and deductibles within your public liability policy?
How is the public liability insurance company rated? The financial strength of the insurer is vital because it provides a snapshot of its ability to pay its policyholders’ claims.
Are all the countries where you operate included in the policy’s jurisdictional limits?
Which entities receive cover under your public liability policy? The hiring of subcontractors presents significant risks. You will need to understand how to handle these exposures.
What is the rate for your public liability cover? Rates can vary greatly based on your risk profile and your claims history.
Can you obtain enough primary liability limits, or will you require an excess liability policy?

How Much Public Liability Cover Do We Need?*

You may wonder how much protection you need for your business. That number depends on the size of your company and the operational risks you face. $5 million does not go far in today’s litigious environment. From limits of $5 million to $20 million or more, we can help you select the cover amount that helps protect your business.

When determining limits, we can assist by reviewing your business and comparing industry coverage benchmarks. These benchmarks compare typical industries’ liability and other insurance limits. For example, if you are a heavy equipment manufacturer, we can benchmark typical coverage limits similar manufacturers buy.

With that information and your unique rating data, we can approach the insurance market to compare quotes and coverage terms for your business.
