Three questions, clearly separated.

These are topics to check, not statements about what is or is not covered for you.

01 / Property

  • Building structure and rebuilding costs
  • Contents and specified item limits
  • Flood exposure, exclusions and excesses
02 / Business

What helps operations continue?

  • Premises, equipment and stock
  • Business interruption triggers
  • Liability and key-person dependencies
03 / Responsibility

Where do obligations sit?

  • Your own share of a claim
  • Policyholder duties and claim process
  • Limits, exclusions and conditions
Property values

Market value

What a property may sell for. Ask how this figure affects the valuation in your policy.

Rebuilding cost

Reconstruction cost

What rebuilding may cost. Ask which figure your policy uses and how it was calculated.

Review before you rely

Know the insured value

Check building and contents separately and keep an up-to-date inventory.

Read the boundaries

Ask how flood, exclusions, deductibles and your responsibilities affect a claim.

Plan for interruption

Check the events that trigger business interruption benefits and the records required.

Travel and personal accident cover are often reviewed alongside property and business cover. Ask what triggers a claim and what is excluded.

Five questions. No score.
