Also, you would need to understand the particular risks that your business is exposed to and only insure against those risks. Don't buy bogus plans that include the risks your business is not vulnerable to.

A poultry business should not insure against fire since it is less likely that a fire incident would incur in a poultry farm but they should rather insure against sudden mass mortality of birds.

Make sure you understand every clause in the insurance contract. When you don't understand a particular clause, get clarification from a legal practitioner so that you don't end up paying for bogus things because you have already signed on it.
