Commercial Package Insurance

COMMERCIAL PACKAGE INSURANCE

A commercial package policy (CPP) is an insurance policy that combines coverage for multiple perils, such as liability and property risk. A commercial package policy allows a business to take a flexible approach to obtain insurance coverage. The benefit of CPP is that it may allow the business to pay out a lower amount of premiums than if it purchased a separate policy for each risk.

These packages can include:

• Commercial package policies (CPPs) are insurance policies that combine policies, such as liability and property.
• These policies are often meant for small- to medium-sized businesses.
• CCPs can include general liability, property, auto, and crime policies, among others.
• Some types of insurance aren't allowed in CCPs, such as workers' compensation and life group life insurance policies.
• CCP differs from the business owner policy (BOP) because the CCP is customizable, while BOP offers a set of policies that cannot changed.
• Commercial property insurance: If something damages physical property—such as your building or possessions—then this coverage can help you repair or replace them.
• General liability insurance: This covers your business in the event it causes property damage or bodily injuries to another party, like a client or vendor.
• Business interruption insurance: This helps you pay bills if you must temporarily close after a damaging accident.
• Commercial auto insurance: If your small business owns vehicles, this coverage supplies the requisite physical damage, liability and other benefits to help you afford the costs of wrecks or other vehicle hazards.
• Workers’ compensation insurance: If an employee gets hurt on the job, they’re often eligible for workers' compensation. This supplies supplementary income during their recovery.
• Errors & omissions insurance: Professional advice or mistakes can cause your clients a financial loss. This coverage compensates them on behalf of your business.
• Surety bonds: If you’re contractually bound to certain clients, then bonds will guarantee them that you will repay them if you cannot meet your obligations.
