The SureThing policy does not cover business debts. It covers legal liability arising from a wrongful act on the part of the business – not debts incurred as part of commercial transactions
SureThing does not cover the business’s own loss, known as a first-party loss. It only covers liability to third parties arising from a wrongful act.
Commercial crime and staff theft are considered first-party losses suffered by the business, not a third-party liability. As such, the SureThing policy does not cover it.
If your product does not do what it is supposed to or fails, and a pure financial loss is caused, there is no cover. Product recall is also not covered.
The policy auto-renew each year at the same policy terms and conditions, unless there is a claim, or the business no longer falls within the criteria and does not qualify for the policy. An inflationary increase in premium may be applied on 30 days’ notice.
No problem! Whatever the shape and size of your business, if you need indemnity that exceeds the SureThing policy limits, simply ask OLEA South Africa for a list of product offerings. If you need it covered, we have the policy to do it.
