For this purpose, you&rsquo;ve probably thought about purchasing a Business Owner&rsquo;s Policy (BOP), but should you also opt for commercial property insurance coverage as well?<\/p>\n<h2> \tWhat is a Business Owner&rsquo;s Policy?<\/h2>\n<p> \tIn addition to coverage for your property, your Albany-based business should also have protection against third-party claims and coverage for both company vehicles and non-business vehicles used by employees. A Business Owner&rsquo;s Policy (BOP) combines property and liability policies into a single, simplified package. The average BOP policy can also be tailored to suit your business&rsquo;s needs.<\/p>\n<p> \tBOPs include a wide spectrum of coverage options for companies, but the most common forms of coverage involve general liability and property insurance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> \t\tProperty insurance under a BOP provides coverage for personal property, permanently attached equipment and structures that you own or lease for your business. It also includes coverage against business interruptions due to a natural disaster.<\/li>\n<li> \t\tGeneral liability insurance provides protection against third-party claims due to property damage or bodily injury that occurs on your premises or as a result of your operations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2> \tBOP or Commercial Property Insurance: Which One Should I Choose?<\/h2>\n<p> \tCommercial property insurance simply covers your business&rsquo; leased and owned physical property and the property of your clients and customers whereas, a BOP covers not just your building and other property, but it also provides general liability and other forms of coverage.<\/p>\n<p> \tSince a BOP already includes commercial property coverage, you&rsquo;re better off having the comprehensive protections afforded by one. In addition, you&rsquo;ll also save money by having all the coverage your company needs in one package.
