The impact of MGAs getting more business

  It is taking longer to get insurance placed through managing general agents because MGAs are getting more business in the hard market, one Ontario broker suggests. Many commercial accounts, which previously would have been handled by retail brokers, are now going to the MGA market, said Greg Robertson, president of R. Robertson Insurance Brokers Ltd., in an interview last week. “The MGAs are inundated by work,” Robertson said. “It’s not an availability crunch, but there are time constraints now that were not present last year because of the massive strain that MGAs are feeling as it relates to the commercial portfolios.  Construction coverage insurance in canada  are looking at their appetites in classes of business in restaurant, realty and hospitality.” Robertson was asked about issues in the property and casualty  insurance for Contractors  and some vacant properties.

Crime coverage critical for safeguarding hard earned money of business owners

While cyber crimes make all the top headlines, physical crimes perpetrated by employees seem to be flying under the radar. This is particularly worrisome for smaller operations as dishonest employees with criminal intent to steal money or inventory could make or break a business. While businesses shouldn’t underestimate the harmful ramifications of a cyber breach, non-physical crimes have not usurped physical ones. Consider a recent example  of a Newfoundland minor hockey association now $80,000 in the red after a former treasurer allegedly stole money between 2017 and 2019. That money is owed to the city and for kids to continue to practice hockey at the local civic centre, their parents have to foot the bill. And crimes like that can make or break a business, especially smaller operations. If your business relies on employees handling cash or inventory, your goods and daily earnings are vulnerable. Crime coverage is offered as part of CHES Special Risk’s commercial combined ...

Specialty Markets Well Positioned to Find Insurance Solutions for Cannabis Sector

Cannabis is a rapidly growing industry and manufacturing and selling the substance for recreational purposes — in all forms — has been legal since last October. But because of government-mandated insurance requirements, it has proved challenging for Canadian cannabis businesses to find the insurance coverage they need. The cannabis sector is not new in Canada, after all the substance has been legal for medical purposes since 2001. And in many ways, that paved the way for recreational  cannabis insurance  products. But what is new is the manufacturing, distribution and retail of recreational cannabis. While the federal government wrote cannabis laws and regulations, it gave provinces and territories the authority to decide how the product is sold, including where stores can be located, how they are operated, who is allowed to sell cannabis — and how much insurance businesses have to carry. For the cannabis sector, manufacturers and retailers alike, procuring insurance is still ...
