Information that helps insurers quote
Before requesting terms, prepare a short explanation of the business model, turnover or fees, staff numbers, locations, contract requirements, prior claims and the highest-value assets or liabilities involved.
It also helps to list any risk controls already in place, such as training, inspections, maintenance records, security protections, written procedures, professional qualifications or supplier checks.
