Renew Your Commercial Lines Early for Best Rates

Oct 15, 2021

Own a small business? Have employees on a job site? Need to increase your Umbrella coverage? Are you considering a Cyber policy? If the answer is “yes’ or if you and your firm carry any type of commercial insurance coverage, now is the time to enlist your broker in starting the renewal process.

Reaching favorable terms early in the fall helps you beat the rush and can help secure lower rates than waiting until the end of the year. Your insurance broker will help you identify proactive ways to optimize your premium spending while ensuring maximum protection. Have your broker review your past year claims, payroll, gross sales, etc. now and plan a marketing strategy for the policy renewal.

Policy reviews, risk assessments and claims histories all get reviewed by carriers in the 4th quarter for upcoming year policy pricing. Your broker should help review your past claims history and any changes to your business model or footprint. Remember, new locations, new product lines and new employees all equal new risk and new liability.
