Equally as important, you need reduction in Gross Profit cover following Machinery Breakdown, should one of your key pieces of machinery fail suddenly (due to an insured event).

Marine Cargo Insurance
Any business concern that exports or imports property should effect Marine Cargo insurance. A loss to the property could happen at any time — en route to port, whilst at sea, whilst being off loaded etc. The risk attachment point for marine cargo insurance can be complex, since it is governed by the agreed terms of sale, which usually are Incoterms shipping terms. It is crucial that businesses appoint a qualified risk professional to assist with the construction of a marine cargo policy that is tailor made to your risk and needs.

Liability Insurance
A common mistake made by some business owners is to only concentrate on the insurance of their own assets (sometimes called first party insurance). While securing comprehensive insurance cover on your assets is key, transferring the insurable risk exposure you have as a business to third parties is critically important to ensure business continuation. Some examples of specialised liability cover include Directors & Officers Liability, Professional Indemnity Liability (aka Errors & Omissions), Product Recall/Inefficacy/Guarantee, Cyber Liability, Environmental Impairment Liability and Employment Practices Liability, to name but a few.
