The 10 sample cards as a list
-
What makes a commercial policy a package policy rather than a monoline policy?It combines two or more coverage parts, such as commercial property and general liability, in one policy.Commercial Property › Package Policy & Common Conditions
Why: a monoline policy has a single coverage part, and packaging usually earns a premium discount. -
Which pieces make up an ISO commercial package policy?Common policy declarations, common policy conditions and two or more coverage parts, often with interline endorsements.Commercial Property › Package Policy & Common Conditions
Why: each coverage part brings its own declarations, conditions and coverage forms, and a property part adds a causes-of-loss form. -
What does business income coverage pay after a covered fire closes a store?The net income the business would have earned plus its continuing normal operating expenses, including payroll, during the period of restoration.Business Income
Why: it puts the business where it would have been had the loss not happened. -
A shop loses sales because a nearby road is closed for repairs, though nothing on its premises is damaged. Does business income coverage pay?No: it requires direct physical loss or damage to property at the described premises from a covered cause of loss.Business Income
Why: provisions such as civil authority and dependent properties reach beyond the premises only in narrow situations. -
What does a businessowners policy (BOP) combine?Property and general liability coverage for small and mid-sized businesses in one pre-packaged policy.Businessowners Policy
Why: it trades flexibility for simplicity and usually a lower premium than buying the coverages separately. -
Which businesses are eligible for a businessowners policy?Small to mid-sized, lower-hazard businesses that meet the insurer's size and class rules, such as offices, shops and apartment buildings.Businessowners Policy
Why: larger or more hazardous operations are written on a commercial package policy instead. -
What does the Nationwide Marine Definition do?It sets out which risks may be written as marine insurance, a definition developed through the NAIC.Inland & Ocean Marine › Inland Marine
Why: it covers goods in transit, instrumentalities of transportation and communication, and floater risks that move from place to place. -
Bridges, tunnels and radio towers never move. Why can they still be insured under inland marine?They are instrumentalities of transportation and communication under the Nationwide Marine Definition.Inland & Ocean Marine › Inland Marine
Why: inland marine grew out of transportation insurance, and these structures support transport and communication. -
A thief threatens a cashier with a knife and takes the cash drawer. Under commercial crime definitions, is that robbery, burglary or theft?Robbery.Crime & Equipment Breakdown › Crime
Why: robbery means taking property from someone in charge of it by harming or threatening that person, or by a plainly unlawful act done in their sight; safe burglary needs forced-entry marks on a locked safe or vault (or removal of the whole safe), and theft is any unlawful taking. -
Stock disappears from a warehouse with no sign of a break-in. Why can't the owner claim it as a burglary?No forced entry: the ISO crime form's burglary cover, "safe burglary", needs forced-entry marks on a locked safe or vault, or removal of the whole safe.Crime & Equipment Breakdown › Crime
Watch out: its employee-theft cover also excludes losses proven only by an inventory or profit-and-loss computation.
