FAQs

As a small business owner in Japan, you are responsible for the well-being of a range of people, from employees to customers. Your business activities can affect your key stakeholders in serious and costly ways, and the financial consequences of a mishap can wipe out your assets. A proper small business insurance solution can protect you financially against unforeseen damages and give you peace of mind.

The most common types of insurance are already packaged under a business owner’s policy – property damage, business interruption, computer/electronic equipment, money, fidelity guarantee, worker injury compensation, and public liability. You may also want to consider a financial lines policy (directors and officers liability, professional indemnity and cyber and data protection) to safeguard your balance sheet and reputation.

A D&O policy fills the gap that general insurance does not cover when protecting you, your small business, and your directors and officers from the costs of lawsuits and investigations brought by regulatory authorities, clients, creditors, competitors, employees, investors, lenders and suppliers.

Data breaches and cyberattacks are rising, and attackers are using the same tactics against big and small businesses. This means that a small business faces the same threats and risks without a big budget for a robust security program. While risk management can minimize the extent to which an attacker moves through your environment and mitigate the damage should an attack occur, a cyber and data protection policy can cover the financial impact of a cyberattack.

You can tailor your policy to your business's needs. Below is a list of possible coverages in [country]:

  1. Property Damage: For accidental physical loss or damage.
  2. Business Interruption: For losses from an interruption to your business caused by Property Damage.
  3. Computer / Electronic Equipment: For losses from material damage, costs of reinstatement of data, and other additional expenses.
  4. Money: For loss of money kept on your premises or in transit.
  5. Fidelity Guarantee: For loss of money or property due to fraud or employee dishonesty.
  6. Work Injury Compensation: For compensation to your employees from bodily injury, illness, disease, or death caused by accident arising out of, and during, employment.
  7. Public Liability: For your legal liability, costs, and expenses against third parties.
  8. Marine Cargo: For your goods against damage, destruction, or pilferage during transit.

Contact your risk advisor with your claim details in case of a claim. A claims specialist will then manage the claims process on your behalf.
