A Quick Look at Business Insurance for Natural Disasters 22/07/2019

A Quick Look at Business Insurance for Natural Disasters With earthquakes in California and Hurricane Barry striking states along the Gulf of Mexico and in the Midwest, small business owners should examine their insurance policies and determine how well covered they'd be in the event of a disaster.

Quote from Raymond Garraud, P&C Insurance Advisor 17/07/2019

For both auto and home insurance, there’s a maximum coverage limit for liability. That limit may not be enough to protect you against the worst-case scenario. That’s where an umbrella policy comes in. The umbrella policy covers losses that exceed the limits of either your auto or homeowners policy.

For example, if you have an auto policy with $250,000 in bodily injury liability coverage and a home insurance policy with $300,000 in bodily injury liability coverage, a $1 million umbrella policy can extend the coverage limits to $1,250,000 and $1,300,000, respectively — and the increased coverage is more affordable than you might think.

The main purpose of your umbrella policy is to protect your assets from an unforeseen event, such as a tragic accident in which you are held responsible for damages or bodily injuries. If another party files a lawsuit against you, your umbrella coverage will pay for the damages you're legally responsible for up to the policy limit.

Expect to pay about $250 to $400 per year for a $1 million umbrella policy, the difference in rates are often due to rating factors

Quote from Raymond Garraud, P&C Insurance Advisor 12/07/2019

A Homeowner policy's hurricane deductible is distinct from the deductible for other sorts of damage to your home and usually goes into effect when a storm is categorized as a hurricane by the National Weather Service — or, in some cases, when a storm is named, even if it doesn’t become a hurricane.

Nineteen states including Virginia have hurricane deductibles.

Insurance isn't the most thrilling to think about, but it's necessary for protecting yourself, your family, and your wealth.

Accidents, illness, and disasters happen all the time. At worst, events like these can plunge you into deep financial ruin if you don't have insurance to fall back on. Some insurance policies are unavoidable (think: car insurance in most US states), while others are simply a smart financial decision (think: life insurance).
