Underinsurance
We know it’s tempting to select a lower level of cover to reduce premiums, but this can leave businesses shocked and insufficiently covered when making a claim.
Ways underinsurance catches business owners out:
Inflation
With inflation, the cost of living and doing business increases. Remember to cover you, your tools and assets for the rising costs of replacing or covering them, not what you paid for them – you may be surprised at the difference.
Not covering the full cost of your risks
If you select cover levels for less than the value you may be found liable – left out of pocket when it comes to claims time. It’s important to review your risks and determine how much you will need to cover any claim that may come your way.

Frequently asked questions
Product Liability insurance is designed to cover any compensation payable to a third party, and your defence costs (these are the reasonable costs incurred while investigating and defending a covered claim including legal fees, experts fees and court costs).
In Australia, if you sell, give away, or import products, you’re responsible for ensuring they’re safe and meet requirements by the Australian Consumer Law. If a product causes injury, illness, death, or property damage, your business could be held liable—even if you didn’t make it. This includes cases where you import, assemble, rebrand, or present yourself as the manufacturer.
