YOU ASK:

What is the definition of Multiple Peril Policy?

WE ANSWER:

A Multiple Peril Policy provides protection against various perils or risks. This is usually provided for business and homeowners insurance and provides coverage for liability, casualty and property. In short, a group of insurance products wrapped up in one.

This kind of policy is also considered as all-risk insurance. It should be differentiated from a multiple protection insurance (which is for life insurance coverage and provides a combination of whole life and term insurance).

Examples of multiple peril insurance geared towards businesses (commercial lines) include Commercial General Liability (CGL), Business Crime, Inland Marine Insurance, Commercial Property Insurance, Business Automobile, Farmowners and Ranchowners Insurance, as well as Boiler and Machinery Insurance.
