Corporate Insurance:
Corporate Insurance is a broad name for different coverage available to the business owner to protect against losses and to insure the continuing operation of the business. For our businesses, however, we often do not consider risk or believe that the risks cannot be managed and so we turn a blind eye hoping that nothing “bad” happens. Some business owners I have worked with believe that since their business is profitable with a positive cash flow they can take care of the disaster when it happens. They forget that if the business is not operating - there is no cash flow.

Corporate Insurance is nothing more than spreading and managing the risk among many business owners. Insurance companies take in premium payments from many covered businesses, invest those payments, and create a pool of money to pay out to a covered business if that business has a covered loss. Over the last 300 years, insurers have developed mathematical models to determine what chance there is of a risk occurring and, in so doing, what premiums the insurer must charge to stay in business and make a profit. Over that same time, insurers have developed approximately eight to nine general categories of losses that seem to happen with more frequency. The insurers developed particular policies to address those types of losses.
Corporate Insurance is a broad description that can be broken down into a list of nine types of insurance policies and here we will briefly explain the coverage and expand on these as individual topics. Insurance companies selling Corporate Insurance offer policies that combine protection from all major property and liability risks in one package.
