SMEs and Insurance: Why is it so important?

When starting and running a small and medium sized business there is always risk involved. This is why business insurance is so important for business owners to manage these risks, reduce uncertainty and protect business finances. Business insurance can cover your company for a wide range of risks. It can ensure that you, your employees, and any members of the public who interact with your business are protected.

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to your SMEs business insurance, which is why you cannot spare the expense of insurance. If your business does not have insurance, then any sort of legality issues or liability claims could lead to out-of-pocket costs and the possibility of bankruptcy for small or medium sized businesses.

In Australia two forms of insurance are compulsory for most businesses. These two are worker’s compensation and if you operate any vehicle, compulsory third party insurance. However, common types of business insurance focus on assets, revenue, liability, and personnel. These include professional indemnity/liability, property, public liability, product liability, theft, and commercial vehicle insurance.

The type of insurance you purchase for your SME, will depend on the type of operation you run. While you will naturally want to cover your business from every possible risk, a lot of insurances can be expensive. As you purchase the compulsory insurances, the additional insurances will put some financial strain on your cash flow around the time annual premiums need to be paid.

The last thing you would want to do for your SME is disrupt a positive cash flow and risk the payment cycle of the business. Therefore, it is not only important to have insurance in place for your business, but it is also important to have the means to pay for your insurance without risking your healthy cash flow.
