Communication, Media & Technology Insurance 

Types of insurance cover your communication, media and technology business may require

Insurance programmes for communication, media and technology businesses would typically include a combination of the following cover:

• Insurance to protect the production of adverts: Commonly advert suppliers are relied upon to provide insurance protection for the production of an advert. A production insurance program offers an insurance solution for your advertising production needs. The perfect solution for protection from third party premiums that would otherwise be passed on to yourself. The communication, media & technology industry requires extensive advertising, whether it be offline or online. Insurance protecting the production of adverts gives you total peace of mind that your advert production is protected at all times. 

• Cyber risk consulting for communications: The communication, media & technology industry is leading the way in disruptive technologies, and with such a dependency on technology comes a need for managing risk. Over the past few decades, the severity of cyber risks has become apparent, and the potential loss caused by these events can be concerning. Cyber risk consulting offers a comprehensive solution to managing your company’s risk. 
• Technology professional indemnity insurance: With so many clients relying on technology for communication and media, it’s important that you have insurance in place to cover you from fraud, dishonesty of employees, network security costs, cyber liability and so much more. 
• Employers’ liability insurance: This is a compulsory type of insurance for employers, regardless of whether the member of staff is permanent, temporary, volunteer, contractor or freelancer. The minimum level of protection is £5m, which will cover the cost of compensation claims if staff get injured or fall ill as a result of carrying out their required duties.
• Commercial buildings and contents insurance: Provides cover for your business premises in the event of flooding, a fire or theft. 
• Business interruption insurance: Provides cover for financial losses if your business can’t operate from its premises as normal as a result of a fire, major theft or a flood. 
• Intellectual Property insurance: Your IP may well be your most valuable asset. IP Insurance could cover the cost of enforcement, pursuing or defending claims for IP infringements.

These are just examples of some of the types of communication, media and technology insurance policies that we look after at Business Line Insurance.
