Understand the ‘why’ behind your Business Insurance.

We’re not about just pushing an insurance product, we want to help you understand why you need a certain type of cover and the benefits of having it in place. Once you understand the risks of being without adequate cover, you’ll have a bigger appreciation of the importance of business insurance and will get peace of mind knowing you have the right cover for your needs.

By keeping a close relationship with your insurance broker, or have advisors who do, you’ll know when and how your business insurance policies should be taken out, what needs to be covered and for how long. This will help to ensure you aren’t paying for something you don’t need, but more importantly: That you’re covered for real risks in your industry.

Frequently Asked Questions

An insurance broker is an expert in insurance and can also assist with risk management. Insurance can be incredibly complicated to fully understand, and an insurance broker can help you understand the details of a policy and also work out what level of cover you need so that you are adequately covered.

Using a broker doesn’t necessarily cost more. In most cases, it costs less because brokers have knowledge of the insurance market and the ability to negotiate competitive premiums on your behalf.

Insurance brokers deal with a range of insurance companies directly and in some cases they can access policies that are not readily available to most customers. If the worst happens and you do have to make a claim, a broker will act on your behalf, liaising with the insurance company to negotiate the best possible outcome for the client. Speak to the team at Carbon Insurance Brokers to see how we can help you.

An insurance broker can assess your business needs, recommend appropriate coverage, negotiate competitive premiums and assist with claims to ensure you get the best possible outcome.

The insurance that is needed for any business can vary greatly depending on the occupation/industry in question. Typical business insurance policies may include the following:

  • Public & products liability
  • Business property
  • Business interruption
  • Theft
  • Money
  • General property
  • Mechanical breakdown
  • Commercial motor vehicle
  • Management liability

There are also insurance policies that, in addition to the above, are recommended for businesses that give any sort of professional advice. Examples of this are as follows

  • Professional indemnity
  • Directors and officers

Any business that operates using online servers, cloud-based programs and or store personal information, are recommended to take out cyber insurance.

The above insurances, while strongly recommended for all business owners, are optional. This is not the case however when it comes to workers compensation Insurance as any business that employs staff must have workers compensation insurance in place as per the respective state legislation.

You should review your business’ insurance policies annually as circumstances change year to year. Your insurance broker will be able to do this for you, making the process quick and seamless.

It is important to ensure your business is adequately insured, and its individual merits as businesses can vary greatly in size, industry, and risk exposure.

When establishing how much to insure your business for, consider things such as turnover, profit, value of property such as the building, contents, stock or tools. It is also important to consider what the potential financial impact could be to the business when you are not able to trade for extended periods due to an insured event, for example, fire or machinery breakdown.

Another key point to consider is ensuring that your insurance values/limits are reviewed regularly. Businesses change all the time, and the insurance should be updated accordingly to avoid being underinsured.

We offer a range of insurance solutions including business insurance, property insurance, liability insurance and personal insurance.

Public liability insurance covers claims of injury or damage to third parties, while professional indemnity insurance covers claims arising from professional advice or services you provide.

Business interruption insurance helps cover the loss of income and operating expenses if your business is temporarily closed due to an insured event, like a fire or natural disaster.

Yes, bundling policies can simplify management and potentially save on premiums. Our brokers will help you find the best bundling options for your needs.
