Business Owners Policy (BOP)

Bundled property and liability coverage for many small businesses—often a cost-effective foundation.

What Is a BOP?

A Business Owners Policy (BOP) bundles commercial property and general liability—and sometimes other coverages—into one policy. It is designed for small to mid-sized businesses that qualify and can be more affordable than buying property and liability separately.

Who Needs It

Many retail, office, and service businesses that have modest property and liability exposures can benefit from a BOP. Eligibility and terms vary by carrier and business type.

What It Can Help Protect Against

Property: fire, theft, vandalism, and other covered perils for your building and/or business personal property. Liability: third-party bodily injury and property damage claims. Some BOPs include business income (loss of income) and optional coverages.

Related Industries

Restaurants, retail, professional services, and other qualifying small businesses often use a BOP as the base of their program.
