Overview

More protection for less than buying it piece by piece

A BOP combines general liability with commercial property and business income (loss of income) coverage in a single package. Because carriers bundle them, a BOP usually costs less than buying each coverage separately.

We compare BOPs from multiple carriers and add the endorsements that matter for your business — like equipment breakdown, spoilage, employee dishonesty or hired and non-owned auto.

Questions

Business Owners Policy (BOP) FAQ

What does a BOP not cover?

Workers' compensation, commercial auto and professional liability are separate policies.

Is my business eligible for a BOP?

BOPs are designed for small to mid-size businesses with lower-hazard operations. Higher-risk operations may need a custom package, which we also place.

Can I add business income coverage?

Business income is usually included in a BOP; we help set the right amount and waiting period.
