Common Business Owners Policy Questions
A BOP is a package of insurance coverage designed with the small business owner in mind. When you buy a BOP, you’ll have protection against numerous hazards and liability that might impact your business’s property, possessions or overall financial stability. With it, you can afford to pick up the pieces of your losses without a huge financial loss that might destabilize the business.
Often, BOPs are the best insurance solutions for businesses with lower revenue streams, payroll numbers and liability risks. With them, you won’t have to buy and pay for multiple policies just to get essential coverage. Instead, you can pay one price to have several types of protection in one place.
Most BOPs contain three types of coverage:
Property Insurance
A sudden, unexpected hazard might damage your business at any time. You never know when a fire, severe weather, vandalism, theft or another problem might arise. When they do, however, property coverage can help you pick up the pieces. With this coverage, you can replace or repair your building, furnishings, equipment, stock, machinery and even certain personal possessions.
General Liability Insurance
If you harm someone else as a result of your mistakes or negligence, this coverage can help you repay them. Most policies pay for a variety of third-party injuries or property damage. So, if a client were to fall in your business, get hurt and then sue you, then this coverage can help you compensate them.
Business Interruption Insurance
Should a covered workplace hazard cause you to have to shut down for a time, then you might lose critical revenue and have a hard time staying afloat. Business interruption coverage can help you recoup some of your financial losses. That way, you can reopen in a more stable financial position.
You can also often augment your BOP with additional protection, such as:
Workers’ compensation insurance
Errors & omissions coverage
Commercial auto insurance
EPLI coverage
Directors & officers coverage
Cyber liability coverage
In many cases, you can add some of this additional coverage into your BOP using endorsements. However, other policies you will have to buy separately. Your agent is happy to help you figure out the right route to take to receive the most comprehensive protection.
Often, it is easier to buy a BOP than to try to buy separate property, liability & business interruption coverage. You will only pay one premium for a BOP, which often falls between $1,000 - $1,200 per year.
When enrolling in your BOP, your insurer will develop a risk rating that shows how likely you are to file a claim on you BOP. The higher your risk of filing a claim, the more you are likely to pay in premium costs. Some of the factors that can influence your premium include:
The coverage limits you select
The size of your business and payroll
Your location
Your history of filing business insurance claims
Your industry
