Available types of Business Insurance

Please note that this is not an extensive list. Please contact us to discuss your business insurance requirements.

Directors and Officers Insurance (D&O Insurance)

At a glance, D&O Insurance can protect you and/or your company’s leaders and private assets from claims that arise as a result of decisions made during their duties. For example, D&O Insurance can protect business leaders against claims made as a result of allegations of wrongful acts, mismanagement of process, insolvencies, failures to comply with government regulation and laws, settlements as a result of litigation, claims made by competitors and much more.

Cyber Insurance

Cyber Insurance is not an option, but a must for all businesses. As a business, you are open to cyber and spyware attacks that could result in significant losses of profit, breach of privacy regulations and more. The right Cyber Insurance policy can provide you with a safety net against these risks.

Construction Insurance

Construction Insurance provides protection for builders during the period of construction and for your broader business activities as a builder. It is an essential form of protection to ensure your assets and liability are properly insured. A comprehensive Construction and Builders Insurance policy provides protection for assets during the construction period and protects your business against any legal liability claims which arise as a result of the construction project.

Mining Contractors Insurance often consists of two main insurance policies: Professional Indemnity Insurance and Public Liability Insurance.

Professional indemnity insurance

Provide advice for a fee? Professional Indemnity Insurance protects your business from claims made by your clients and customers against you as a result of the advice that you provide them.

Public Liability Insurance

Public Liability Insurance can protect you in the case that someone makes a claim against your business due to negligence, or if someone is injured in your premises.

(Refer to Public Liability Insurance Melbourne).

IT Liability Insurance

IT Liability Insurance is designed to protect you against the numerous risks you may face when you are working as an IT-related professional. The main advantages of a specialist IT Liability Insurance policy is that it combines both Professional Indemnity and Public and Product Liability coverage under the one insurance policy which avoids any gaps in coverage if the two policies are placed with separate insurers.
