Don't cut corners when it comes to covering your small business! Many people (mistakenly) believe small businesses don't carry the same liability as multimillion-dollar companies, but in reality, their insurance risks are HIGHER. Just one costly claim could threaten the entire business. Here are some tips to ensure your small business is protected against the unpredictable.

ASIC is encouraging small business owners to make insurance claims for interruptions caused by COVID-19. So far, just 3000 businesses have made claims. While there's a lot of uncertainty about whether SMEs are covered, it's definitely worth speaking with your accountant or insurance broker to find out how this applies to your business.

It's time to have a conversation about your insurance. No need to wait until 'closer to renewal.' Take a call from a good broker that knows your industry and hear them out. Tell them you don't want to jump into quoting but ask if they want to review what you have and let you know if you are overpaying or missing anything critical. You should be able to get these answers without quoting or disturbing you current agent. You will then know what action makes the most sense. We help law firms, contractors, and design firms do this 'due diligence' every day. The best time to do it? 5 months before you renew!

Does your insurance team provide an annual review meeting when they're not asking for money? Let's be honest. At the renewal, you're really only looking at the price, right? I just spoke with a business that recently had a $400k claim get denied because their coverage was written incorrectly. OUCH!! The reality is, businesses change! That's why we meet face-to-face with our clients in our mid-year "Annual Client Review" -- going over details and answering question -- to be sure we've got it right. DM me if you'd like a no-pressure coverage review for your business.

Every business relies on key individuals whose contributions are vital. But what if you lose one unexpectedly? Legal and General's research shows that 59% of businesses believe they would have to stop trading in less than a year after the death or critical illness of a key individual. One protection that is sometimes overlooked is Keyperson Insurance. It ensures your business stays financially stable if the unexpected happens, helping you replace the key person and help cover any profit loss.

How often do you check your business insurance policies to ensure you are covered in the event of a natural disaster or unexpected claim? Many business owners aren’t vigilant enough when it comes to making sure they are not underinsured. You will also need to consider the following costs (not just build replacement) • Removal of debris and rubbish from the site • Cost of lost wages and not trading for an extended period of time • Cost of replacement stock and equipment • Increased material costs to rebuild (prices have increased) • Changes to State & Federal Laws on regulations that make some items more expensive to replace (like a roller door) Underinsurance could bankrupt your business.
