Building your IT consultants’ business insurance policy

Your IT consultancy may need several different covers depending on nature of your work and the size of your business. Simply Business gives you the chance to build a policy suited precisely to your needs.

These business insurance covers should help you get started:

Professional indemnity insurance is vital for all consultants. Your clients rely on you for advice and the services you provide. If this advice is faulty or you are found to be otherwise negligent, your client may suffer a financial loss for which you would be liable. Professional indemnity insurance can cover the cost of any resulting claims made against you.

Public liability insurance is important because it covers the cost if a claim is made against you because a person has been injured or their property damaged because of your business activities. Public liability claims can be financially crippling, and it is vital for the stability of your business that you are properly covered. Simply Business offers public liability insurance up to a value of £10 million.

Details to look out for

  • You are legally obliged to take out employers’ liability insurance if you employ anyone. Failure to do so could result in a fine of up to £2,500 for every day you are uninsured.
  • Make sure you read and understand any exclusions on your policy. Simply Business offers you the chance to read the policy documents in full before you buy.
  • Where possible, ask potential clients what level of professional indemnity insurance they expect before you buy your policy.
