Frequently asked questions

What should I include in a commission-based wholesaling insurance quote request first?

List activity profile, assets, workforce structure, and your top three exposures. For Wholesale Trade this is usually where stock holding and transport risk across distribution cycles, credit exposure from trade terms, customer concentration, and invoicing patterns, vehicle, warehouse, and cold-chain asset exposure become the most important differentiators.

Are class-level pages different from division-level insurance guidance for Wholesale Trade?

Use the class page when your operations map to specific activities. It helps you compare more precise exclusions, continuity, and liability wording for your exact business type.

Which cover types usually need tighter limits first?

Across most divisions, public liability, property/equipment, business interruption, and workers compensation are usually the fastest way to improve quote comparability.
