What Is Commercial Insurance?

Commercial insurance is insurance designed to protect your business from financial liability in various ways. Many business owners seek a "business owners policy (BOP)," which offers a variety of coverage, including liability, business property insurance, and business interruption coverage. BOP policies are very common and have what many businesses need to stay protected. 

BOP insurance helps protect your business from financial liability if a covered event like a fire or theft occurs. Companies are not immune from disasters, so insurance can help your business recover if a covered disaster occurs. A typical business owner’s policy will also cover personal and advertising injury claims.   

There are other types of coverage as well, including extended liability for additional insureds, coverage of tools and equipment, debris removal coverage, personal property coverage, and valuable records protection.
