A business owner’s policy offers many protections for insurance agencies, but it doesn’t provide coverage for all risks. Business owners should also consider:
Errors and omissions insurance (E&O): Also known as professional liability insurance, this policy can cover legal fees of lawsuits related to your business decisions.
Workers’ compensation insurance: This policy is required in most states for businesses with employees. It can cover medical expenses up to the policy limit if an employee is injured on the job.
Commercial auto insurance: Insurance businesses that own vehicles need to carry this policy to comply with state laws. It helps cover costs if a vehicle gets into an accident.
Cyber liability insurance: This policy helps insurance businesses recover from data breaches. It's recommended for small businesses that handle sensitive information.
