A new policy has been launched by Direct Line that is designed especially for small pubs and restaurants. Cover is included for theft, accidental damage, as well as GBP2 million public liability as well as GBP10 million employers liability cover.
Customers taking out the cover for their businesses can also add on options for their personal premises too, with Direct Line incorporating that into the overall protection. The insurer is aware of the specific issues facing owners and operators of places like these and has created this policy to deal with such factors.
The public and employer liability are key elements of this insurance policy said Direct Line, since pubs and restaurants are prone to such things happening so the policy is structured to ensure sufficient protection is in place.
Apart from all the other costs associated with having children Abbey National are warning parents that home insurance is essential so as to be covered for likely accidents.
Each year, according to a new Abbey National study, children cause damage costing more than GBP500 million across 2.5 million homes in the UK. It is the toddlers who are the ones to watch, as the study revealed those aged between 1 and 5 cause nearly a quarter of all the household accidents.
The Abbey National data also showed boys to be twice as troublesome as girls in the household damage stakes, while the most common home insurance claims for damage caused by children are on paint or wallpaper, furniture and items being broken.
Life Assurance plans are something that everyone should have, as long as they are the most suitable for the customer. The CIS Life Insurance division is offering some handy tips to help customers make sure their loved ones are looked after.
CIS Insurance are, for example, offering customer alerts to advise of premium increases as well as identifying the best life assurance policies for those with children. A key aspect of this type of cover is the provision of income replacement, where a sum is paid on a quarterly basis to the remaining family.
A word of warning is also issued regarding Whole of Life policies, from the CIS or any other insurance company, since they are tied in to the performance of the stock market. This means that the amount payable could actually be less than that paid in.
