Business Insurance

We provide tailored cover for your specialist insurance needs and financial advice to help secure your business’ future. From property to liability, construction to finance, trades to motor, and more.

Professional Indemnity insurance protects you against claims for loss or damage made by your clients or third parties resulting from negligent services you rpovided or negligent advice you offered in the course of your professional activities.

Whilst many professions are required to carry Professional Indemnity in order to trade, more and more firms are increasingly required to carry Professional Indemnity not only for their own protection, but also to satisfy contractural obligations.

One size does not fit all in Professional Indemnity, with certain insurers specialising in certain industries and policy wording varyingin the scope and scale of cover.  The Utility Centre can utilise our experience, industry knowledge and insurer relationships to ensure that you have the right cover for your professional activities irrespective of your profession and size.  Every firm is different and we ensure that your insurer knows exacly what you do, to ensure the cover is there when you need it.

The number of commercial crime and cyber losses is now a major concern for businesses.  Examples of claims we are seeing in this sector:

> Fund transfer fraud

> Cyber extortion

> Invoice fraud

> Data loss

> Banking fraud

> Traditional theft

> Theft of vehicles

Whislt these crimes are becoming more and more prevalent, they are also examples of claims that would not necessarily be covered under more traditional covers.  We therefore recommend that all our clients purchase comprehensive Cyber Insurance that will not only indemnify you should you experience a loss of this nature, but provide you with the technological assistance and subject matter expertise that you are likely to require, when dealing with an incident.

When it comes to insurance cover for charities we understand the responsibilities you have and we are here to ensure you have bespke cover which offers the right protection for your organisation, including staff, volunteers and service users alike.  Our charity insurance covers you may benefit from include:

> Public liability

> Employers liability

> Trustee liability

> Cyber risks cover

> Property damage

> Business interruption

> Professional indemnity

> Employment law protection

> Entity defence

> Fidelity

The water treatment sector is an ever-growing area with strict legislation now placing the control and testing for Legionella with the owner / operator of water systems.

The Utility Centre understand the water industry inside and out and the processes involved, giving us the ability to asses your risk and provide bespoke cover that’s not generally available on a standard insurance policy.

Our research tells us that most water treatment professionals have standard liability wordings in place.  However, these often come with a specific exclusion for legionella and efficacy, which engineers and consultants are not aware of and don’t appreciate the effect these limitations have on their own exposure.

There are very few specialist insurance products in the marketplace that can offer comprehensive cover against these liabilities.  Following a significant amount of research into the water treatment industry, we have identified the key insurance requirements and developed a bespoke, exclusive insurance package to protect water treatment engineers, consultants and companies against liabilities and risk faced within the industry.
