What our Theft Insurance for companies covers
This coverage gives you protection against any losses caused by the disappearance, destruction, or deterioration of insured objects as a consequence of burglary/robbery or attempted burglary/robbery by a third party accessing the premises illegally.
Illegal access is considered gaining access through breaking doors, windows, or display windows, opening locks with lockpicks or similar objects, or if the thief gains access in secret and hides to commit the crime while the premises are closed.
The coverage also protects you against the theft of goods in safes or locked furniture provided that access to them has been illegal in the same way as to the premises.
With Burglary/robbery insurance for businesses you have the option to take out this coverage, protecting any goods owned by third parties which you're holding due to your business activities.
