What is Business Owners Insurance?
This type of coverage, also called a business owner’s policy (BOP), is a simplified approach to commercial insurance for small businesses. By combining general liability insurance and commercial property insurance, along with other coverages, you could benefit in several ways:
More potential insurance claims are protected by a single policy.
Submitting claims is simpler because more concerns fall under this one policy.
Business Owners insurance purchased together usually cost less than the total cost of individual policies.

Can I Customize My Policy?
Yes. Your business owners policy can be customized to address your commercial property, business personal property, or liability needs by adding an endorsement. An endorsement can either enhance or modify the coverage, depending on your requirements. Don’t know what you need? Our licensed experts are available to help you figure out which of these endorsements is right for you:
Industry Endorsements
Depending on the industry you’re in, there are specific needs that arise as part of conducting business. For example, a restaurant industry endorsement might cover food spoilage. A retail store endorsement might cover expenses from having to withdraw merchandise. A hotel or motel endorsement might increase coverage for outdoor fences and signs.
Risk-Specific Endorsements
Some businesses have inherent risks beyond what’s usually covered in a business owners insurance policy. There are dozens of risk-specific endorsements that can add an extra layer of protection when needed, like cyber coverage, garagekeepers’ legal liability, miscellaneous professional liability (E&O), and more.
Increased Coverage Limits
If you want even greater security and protection, standard coverage limits can often be increased.

Is a Business Owners Policy Right for My Small Business ?
While business owners coverage is not required by law, some client contracts or property leases might require you to have a general liability or property liability policy. In addition to the standard financial protections, a business owners policy from biBERK can help cover needs specific to your business.
Be Confident in Your Coverage
For example: Say you own a painting or construction business. On a regular job, one of your employees accidentally leaves the water running in a customer’s home, and it causes significant damage. Not only are you responsible for paying for the repairs, you also run the risk of being sued by the customer and having to pay legal fees. Expenses like these could come up at any time without warning, so without proper coverage, the business you’ve worked so hard to maintain could take a big hit financially.
How Much Does Business Owners Insurance Cost?
Calculating Your Premium
All of these factors are considered when calculating your premium:
- Business activities
- Number of employees
- Annual revenue
- Condition and size of your properties
- Industry
- Number of years in business
- Claims history
How can I Reduce Costs?
Business owners insurance is very affordable. Even so, there are steps you can take to lower your insurance costs, including:
Choose biBERK

Save on Billing Fees
Pay your annual business owners insurance premium in full, or sign up for automatic payments at the beginning of the policy.
Actively Manage Risks
Prevent slips and falls (the most common general liability claim) by instructing your employees to maintain a clean environment. You can also manage risks by ensuring your employees are up to date on any necessary training—like how to properly operate machinery, for example.
Protect Your Property
If you want even greater security and protection, standard coverage limits on your business owners insurance often can be increased.
