With a climate so unpredictable are you willing to take any further chances?

FLOODS, STORMS, DAMAGED CROPS, BUSHFIRES… WHAT ON EARTH NEXT?
The last few weeks should be a smack in the face for all of us and we should realise we will all be affected by natural disasters in one way or another. It's now time we all pull our dacks up and prepare for what ever Mother Nature will throw at us next. Devastation has already been seen in many parts of Australia and again we see so many families & businesses not insured or drastically under-insured. This is a huge problem for Small Business, the Business owners must now stand up and get more proactive about their business's future. Financial consequences due to no insurance or even by being under-insured can be significant and have long term effects on your business & livelihood yet people still believe it won't happen to them.

It will happen, it's just a matter of when! Your Business Insurance can be much more productive & should be offering you a greater level of protection.

Agricultural and farming businesses
Take farming businesses as an example.
The beginning of many cropping seasons we see many crops glow & look a million dollars until 'BAM' Mother Nature pays a visit leaving many crops extensively damaged & in some cases totally destroyed and at this point she's only just warming up, she's not even finished with us yet!
 
Multi-Peril Crop Insurance offers coverage against all perils including weather, pests, plant disease and livestock damage. Claims payable will be calculated as the difference between the Sum Insured Revenue and the Actual Revenue, less the applicable value of any retained losses. For most farmers to survive the ever changing Australian climate for generations to come, it is now time to get really serious and consider Multi-Peril Crop Insurance options. With a climate so unpredictable are you willing to take any further chances?

Businesses in flood-prone areas
Flood insurance is very important to protect your Domestic Home & Business and it is possible to add this coverage to your Home & Business Insurance policy. Flood insurance is a very important option that is not provided in every policy, so it is vital to engage a Qualified Insurance Broker who can assist you in obtaining this option. Insurance will never be perfect but we can make the basics perfect so when disaster strikes you can have a roof over your head & a business to go back to.

Preparing for bushfires before they happen
Bushfire season is closely approaching and it is still alarming that many home owners & property owners still don't have adequate cover in place or worse still, none at all. Predictions of a hot, dry summer with higher temperatures than our summer average should be sending a strong reminder to households & business owners in fire zones to prepare for a much higher risk this bushfire season. Springtime is the perfect time to prepare for the much-dreaded bushfire season that looms. Insurance is now more affordable than you think. If your insurance review is completed yearly and is completed with a Qualified Insurance Broker then you will be paying the right premiums. There are many payment options to make protecting your properties more affordable with little strain on your cash flow.

Don't expect help from Government or charities in times of environmental peril
There is no guarantee that our Government will be able to provide a suitable financial solution for when disaster strikes. To date they haven't been able financially support all those who have lost, so the future will be no different. Charity organisations and the goodwill of others is never guaranteed either as their own resources are stretched to the limits. It is now time for all businesses to be responsible for our belongings & stop cutting corners. Stop putting what you have worked so hard for at risk with flow on consequences that can leave you financially stretched or destroyed. If you have business loans or a mortgage the banks will still demand their money even after your Business and / or Home is totally destroyed. The cheapest off the shelf policy will no longer protect you, only the right coverage will.
