Whether you’re a budding entrepreneur launching a startup or a seasoned leader running a well-established company, RF&G has you covered. We offer a wide range of insurance products to safeguard your assets and mitigate potential risks:

  • Property Insurance: Protects your business premises, equipment, and inventory from unforeseen events like fire, theft, or weather damage.
  • Liability Insurance: Shields your company from financial repercussions if a customer sustains an injury or property damage on your premises.
  • Business Interruption Insurance: Provides financial support to cover operational costs and lost income if a disaster or unforeseen event temporarily disrupts your business activities.

Stock and Contents: Inventory Makes a Difference

Knowing exactly what you’re insuring is crucial. To guarantee adequate coverage for your business contents, take a complete inventory of your office. This should include items like computers, furniture, office supplies, and everything used in daily operations.

Accurate stock valuation is essential. By submitting an up-to-date inventory, you equip our claims team to settle claims efficiently and get you the compensation you deserve. While not mandatory for all policies, storing your stock on pallets at least four inches off the ground is a recommended best practice.

Benefits of a Detailed Inventory:

  1. Faster Claim Resolution: With a clear inventory, our team can swiftly assess your losses and expedite your claim payout.
  2. Accurate Coverage: An accurate inventory ensures you have the right amount of insurance to rebuild your business in case of a disaster.

Knowing your business is adequately protected provides valuable coverage for you and your team.

Know the "Average Clause"

Let’s say the replacement value of your building is $100,000, but you decide to insure only half its value, $50,000. Then a hurricane strikes! Your building is badly damaged and repairs will cost around $50,000, the same amount you insured for. Do you have sufficient coverage?

YOU DO NOT!
Since you only insured your building for half of its value, your claim amount will be reduced to half the amount for the cost of repairs, $25,000.

TIPS:

  • Have an appraisal or survey done on your building to make sure you have an accurate and current valuation of your building
  • If you have a swimming pool, fence, patio, pier or any outside structure, include these as separate items in your valuation
  • Make sure to distinguish between the value of your building and the value of the contents inside
  • If you are not sure that your building is adequately insured, contact us or any one of our Agents countrywide to help you make sure you are fully protected.
