What Is Covered By Small Business Insurance?
There are seven common types of business insurance that are offered:
-
Commercial property insurance—This policy provides coverage to your building and other belongings of your business in the event of a fire, explosion, storm, theft or burst pipe. Commercial property insurance is offered on either replacement cost or actual cash value. Replacement cost pays for the replacement or repair of property, while actual cash value pays for the cost of repair or replacement minus the depreciation. The policy best suited for you will vary. General liability insurance—This policy covers claims of bodily injury or property damage resulting from your products, services or operations.
-
General liability insurance can also help pay for legal fees and expenses. There are four coverage elements within this policy:
-
Premises liability covers you if a person who is not employed at your business becomes injured on your property. If someone sued your business because they tripped and fell on your property, liability insurance can help cover those expenses.
-
Products liability covers you if a product or service causes injury to someone’s body or inflicts damage on a consumer’s personal property.

A personal injury is when your business inflicts a physical, financial or mental injury to a third party.
