You need insurance protection to assist with repairing or replacing your assets should they suffer accidental loss or damage from various causes.
These assets could include:
Premises/buildings, fit-outs
Retail, workshop, or office
Contract works
Stock, work in progress, frozen/refrigerated stock and stock in transit
Machinery, plant, and equipment
Electronic devices – computers, laptops, tablets and phones
Vehicles – trucks, cars, tradie vans, and utes
Interruption to Your Business
Business interruption insurance provides a safety net to compensate for the shortfall in income while you can’t operate. It can be the difference between whether your business can recover or not.
Cleaning up, conducting repairs, replacing lost equipment, and even moving to new premises can incur costs that you didn’t budget for.
A business interruption insurance policy will cover you for lost income, ongoing costs such as employee wages, or extra costs to maintain production. Getting the right cover might be complex, but it is essential.
Your Legal Responsibilities
Liability insurance covers a range of products that protect people from being held personally and financially responsible for the things they do (or fail to do) during their work.
It also protects businesses when their products or employees cause or are alleged to have caused damage to property belonging to other parties.
Cyber Liability Protection
Cyber liability protection helps businesses mitigate the financial risks associated with cyber-attacks, data breaches, and other cyber-related incidents, providing coverage for expenses and liabilities that arise from these events.
Professional Indemnity Insurance
Professional indemnity insurance provides businesses with coverage against claims of negligence, errors, omissions, or breaches of duty in their provided services.
This type of coverage is important for businesses that provide professional advice and services to clients.

Manufacturing
Manufacturing is a large part of New Zealand's economy. Adequate insurance and risk management advice are critical to protecting your business.
Cyber Risk
Loss or theft of electronic data, be it yours or your clients, can threaten your business and often requires specialists to manage the recovery of your data and even your reputation. As a relatively new risk area, it’s essential to check whether your current insurance covers you or if you need to consider a specialist policy.
We'll make sure all these things have been considered when we put together insurance options for you. To discuss your business insurance requirements, contact Greenlight.
