What you need to know when choosing commercial insurance

All business owners face a range of risks that may impact their business. The key to a successful business is managing these risks and reducing them where possible through a commercial insurance company.

The range of risk varies significantly depending on the owner’s tolerance and the nature of the business, location and size. Risks can include:

Fire and Perils
Fire is not selective and can strike at any time. Water damage is another major cause of material loss. Midas covers you from damage to your property from sudden, unexpected or unforeseen occurrences.
Business Interruption
Following a fire or major incident a business can stop trading. A tailored policy can cover for the loss of income and increased costs resulting from an incident caused by such an event.
Burglary
One of business’s most common enemies is the intruder. A policy can cover the loss of or damage to your premises due to theft or burglary.
ash Loss
The theft of cash may not be a major issue. However, any loss, big or small, affects your bottom line. You can cover your on-premise cash while in a safe/strong room, in transit to or from your premises, or in personal/employees’ custody.
Plate Glass
Signs, large panes of glass or plastic can often be the target of vandals. Cover the glass in your premises, including internal glass.
Machinery Breakdown
Cover for the breakdown of your business mechanical machinery including air conditioning units, computers and electronic equipment. Deterioration of stock cover can also be taken to replace stock which is kept in freezers and refrigeration units should they break down.
Computer Systems / Electronic Equipment Breakdown
Cover the increased costs of working (such as hiring of alternative computers, the hiring of additional staff) following the breakdown of your business computers.
General Property
Once your equipment, stock or tools of trade leave your business premises, they may be exposed to loss while anywhere within Australia. Cover for the loss of or damage to portable property such as tools, stock samples, laptop computers etc. for fire and other perils, accidental loss or damage, collision of overturned vehicles and theft from a locked premises or vehicle Australia-wide.
Employee Dishonesty
From theft of cash or stock, to illegal electronic transfer of funds, employee theft will drain a company’s profit. Cover for the unwanted theft of your business property or money due to the fraudulent actions of employees.
