Need a reliable Business Insurance Broker?

An insurance broker serves as a liaison between individuals and companies seeking insurance policies. Their main duty is to assist them in obtaining the most suitable insurance policies to cater to their specific requirements. Insurance brokers deal with a diverse range of insurance products, from home and car insurance to complex business insurance policies.

Another important role of an insurance broker is to help their clients navigate the claims process. If you need to file a claim on your insurance policy, your broker can help you understand what you need to do and guide you through the process. At Clutterbuck Insurance Brokers, we believe that a good insurance broker doesn’t just stop there, we can also provide advice on other risk mitigation techniques like avoidance or risk reduction.

With an insurance broker, you can rest assured that you have the best possible coverage at the best possible price.

An "Occurrence" insurance policy covers claims that arise from incidents that occurred during the policy period, regardless of when the claim is made. For example, if you had an "Occurrence" policy in 2020 and a claim is made in 2022 for an incident that occurred in the 2020 period of insurance, the claim would trigger the policy active in 2020.

Public Liability policies are generally written on an “occurrence” basis, it is important to organise this insurance before you start work to avoid trading uninsured. If a claim was to arise from work that was completed 4 years ago, the insurer who held the policy at the time of the event is responsible for the claim as it “occurred” during their active policy.

On the other hand, a "Claims Made" insurance policy covers claims that are made during the policy period, regardless of when the incident occurred. So, using the same example as before, if you had a "Claims Made" policy in 2022 and a claim is made in 2022 for an incident that occurred in 2020, you would be covered under the 2022 policy as a claim brought forward in that period of insurance is generally covered even if the work was completed years ago..

It's important to note that "Claims Made" policies often come with a "retroactive date," which is the earliest date from which incidents can be covered. This means that if you are looking to arrange a Claims Made policy, you will need to consider one with a retroactive date going back to when you started offering your services. If the retroactive date is only from the inception of the policy then the above example is void, and only services given after that date will be covered.

Most professional indemnity insurance policies are written on a claims made basis. It is important to consult your insurance broker regarding this cover to make sure past advice or services will not come back to cause you a headache should the policy not be arranged correctly. It might seem easier and cheaper to arrange this cover online yourself but without informed decision making it can be extremely costly for your business.
