How do I choose the right insurer?
AI Doc Summarizer Doc Summary

Choosing an insurer involves more than comparing the premium.

Two policies with similar prices can have materially different:

  • Cover
  • Exclusions
  • Limits
  • Sub-limits
  • Excesses
  • Conditions
  • Claims processes

What should be compared? #

Relevant factors can include:

  • The insurer’s appetite for your occupation or industry
  • Experience with the type of risk
  • Scope of cover
  • Important exclusions and restrictions
  • Policy limits and sub-limits
  • Excesses
  • Defence-cost treatment
  • Claims service
  • Insurer financial security
  • Contractual or regulatory requirements
  • Premium
  • Available payment options

Some insurers specialise in particular occupations or industries, while others may exclude activities that are important to your business.
