Distressed Business Insurance with Prosura
Trying to buy Business Insurance following a liquidation, bankruptcy or CCJ?
It might sound daunting, and you might be stressing about possible rejection. If you’ve tried online, it’s likely you’ll have been rejected.
Businesses fail for all sorts of reasons. And entrepreneurs will always look at ways of starting afresh. But businesses need insurance – and insurance companies will always ask about prior bankruptcies and CCJ’s for both prior businesses and as part of the application process. Failure to disclose will result in claims not getting paid.
Don’t worry. This is where Prosura come in. While many insurers won’t help, some will. And as a trusted Broker partner, it’s our job to ‘sell’ them why they should offer you protection. Prosura – because you have better things to do.
What you MUST declare – and why
Under the insurance act you have to disclose to insurers many things, but a big one is : Have any of the directors or partners in the business, ever: been the director of a company that has become insolvent or been forced into liquidation.
You will need to disclose if the company has had CCJ’s, or if the directors have been personally bankrupt.
This is because some insurers will see this as a moral risk and refuse cover. And if they would have refused cover if it had been declared, they can (and almost certainly will) refuse to pay out if it is discovered during a claim.
That’s the bad news out of the way. And the good news is that we can help.
Why it’s essential to use an Insurance Broker to buy Business Insurance following on from a liquidation / bankruptcy or CCJ.
