Endorsements

customer group insurance endorsements

The endorsements amending policy wording achieve a broad cover for associations but the cover of certain risks may still be beyond the bounds of insurability for the insurer. This is why some exclusions are appear in the policy.

Again these endorsements to the base policy wording amend the cover to reflect the activities of a community group. The endorsements are shown in detail below the quotes and cover explanations.

Read our Public & Products Liability policy wording for details on these exclusions.

Customer insurance endorsements
Inclusions – these broaden the standard cover

These are amendments which tailor the standard wording to reflect the risks of most community groups and give a winder scope of operation to the base Public & Products Liability policy.

Although certain risks are excluded in one policy it does not mean they can’t be covered either by an endorsement resulting in a higher premium or an additional policy that is specific to cover that particular risk. Below is a list of exclusions in our Public & Products Liability policy, however please notify us if you require cover for any of these exclusions so we can amend the cover to include it or find a suitable alternative to cover the risk.
