'Tis the Season to Review


The Christmas season is upon us, and as a business owner, you're likely preparing for a well-deserved break to celebrate with family and friends. While decking the halls and spreading cheer, it's crucial not to overlook a critical aspect of your business – your insurance coverage. Taking a moment to ensure your policies are up to date can save you from potential headaches in the new year.

Tip 1. Review Your Cover


Begin by revisiting your existing insurance policies. Evaluate whether your cover adequately reflects any changes in your business throughout the year. Has your inventory increased? Are there new employees or equipment that need to be accounted for? Make sure your policies accurately reflect your current business operations.


 

Tip 2: Seasonal Considerations


If your business experiences a significant uptick during the Christmas period, consider whether your existing coverage is suitable for the increased activity. Some businesses may need to adjust coverage temporarily to account for a seasonal surge in operations.


 

Tip 3: Communication with your Broker


Don't hesitate to get in touch with your Broker at any time to discuss any changes or concerns you may have or enquire about additional cover options.


We can provide valuable insights into potential risks specific to the Christmas season and suggest adjustments to ensure comprehensive protection.


 

Tip 4: Emergency Preparedness


The Christmas period can bring about unexpected challenges, such as weather-related disruptions or other unforeseen events. Refresh yourself with the cover that your insurance policies provide should there be any potential losses or damages resulting from these situations.

 

Tip 5: Policy Renewal Dates


Take note of the renewal dates of your existing insurances. If any policies are set to expire during the Christmas break or shortly thereafter, make arrangements to renew them promptly.


It is likely your Broker will have made contact with you about these already, it is imperative you prioritise providing any requested information. Both your Broker and your insurer will likely also take breaks at Christmas and policy renewals at this time should be put in place early to avoid any gaps in cover.



In the spirit of giving, give yourself the gift of peace of mind this Christmas by ensuring that your business insurance is all wrapped up and ready for whatever the new year may bring. Remember, a small investment of time now can save you from larger headaches down the road, allowing you to enjoy the festivities with the assurance that your business is well-protected.
