Since all businesses are unique, Professional Insurance Corporation Zambia has developed a wide selection of options and programs to meet various needs. The company can tailor a specialised package according to a customer's property, liability and casualty needs.
Commercial property insurance
This policy helps protect a building, as well as business and personal property, including tools and equipment, inventory, fixtures and fittings. It protects against loss, damage or theft. Professional Insurance Corporation Zambia has insurance options and optional extensions (such as legal liability cover) to suit various commercial property including:
Commercial vehicles insurance
This policy provides cover for vehicles owned by a company, including goods carrying vehicles, passenger carrying vehicles, special types of vehicles like graders, excavators and ambulances, and agricultural and forestry vehicles like tractors, combine harvesters and planters. The cover is effective whether the vehicles are on the premises or being driven on the public highway.
Passenger cover
The recent introduction of passenger cover is due to the increased number of bus travellers resulting in claims for injury and baggage loss in the event of accidents.
Motor traders insurance
Designed for organisations that are involved in selling, servicing or repairing motor vehicles, this policy provides cover for risks of loss or damage to trade vehicles or customers' vehicles whilst under the organisation's care and custody. The cover is effective whether the vehicles are on the premises or being driven on the public highway, say for testing. Legal liability to the public can also be added to this policy.
Motorcycle insurance
This is cover for self propelled two wheelers or three wheelers including mopeds.
Business liability insurance is designed to safeguard the livelihood of a business. An accident could result in a lawsuit that could kill the business. A way to protect against this type of situation is for a business to take out business liability insurance that adequately covers the risk.
