Business insurance by industry

Consultants and business services insurance

The advice and deliverables in an engagement matter more than a broad consultant title. Explain what a client relies on and who implements your recommendations.

Prepare a useful insurance submission

Provide sample contracts, deliverables, client sectors, project values and any subcontractors. Identify regulated advice, certification work or work outside Canada.

Include your legal business name, operating locations, revenue, current cover and claims history. Explain all activities, including occasional work.

Coverage questions for your operation

Discuss professional liability, contractual obligations, intellectual property and privacy exposures. Confirm how the policy describes all services and applicable reporting requirements.

Compare the declared work, limits, deductibles and exclusions in each proposal. Availability depends on your activities, province and the participating licensed provider.

Find your business activity

Use these activities to prepare your enquiry. Tell the provider exactly what you do; inclusion here is not confirmation of cover or acceptance.

A claims scenario to discuss

Hypothetical scenario

A client disputes a deliverable

A client alleges that an error caused financial loss. Keep the scope, revisions and acceptance records and ask how professional liability terms apply.

Actual outcomes depend on the facts, accepted activities and policy wording.
