IT’S YOUR BUSINESS, PROTECT IT!
Insurance Health Check Business insurance is an essential part of running any business and incorporates part of a risk management strategy. If you are operating a business, chances are that you will need more than just property or liability insurance. Taking out the right insurance will help protect your business and minimise its exposure to risk. If your insurance is due for renewal or you are just wanting to do a general review of your business, it’s worth taking time to do a health check of your insurance to ensure that if the unthinkable happens and your business is hit by a major event, you not only have the right cover but also the right level of cover to keep your business going. Talk to us about our ‘Free Insurance Health Check’ for BDAV Members.
The team at Webber Insurance have always been my ‘go-to’ guys when it comes to Professional Indemnity and Business Insurances. Their industry knowledge and services are second to none. David Cooke, DCA Design

PROTECTION FOR YOUR BUSINESS
Key Insurances MANAGEMENT LIABILITY Protect the directors and management of your company Management liability insurance is a cover that is usually overlooked by business owners - it shouldn’t be! It is one of the MOST important insurance covers that should be put in place to protect not just your business, but the directors and key management as well. Click here to find out more.
IF YOUR BUSINESS IS FOUND LIABLE
MANAGEMENT LIABILITY INSURANCE CAN COVER THE COST OF Claims against a Director Claims made by Employees Fines and Penalties
CYBER INSURANCE Insure your business against hacking or loss of data The internet has changed the world we live in. ‘Cyberspace’ allows people and businesses to communicate, connect and develop in increasingly sophisticated ways. While the internet has made it faster and easier to communicate, this rapidly expanding technology is not without its risks. Therefore it is essential for both businesses and their customers to be protected by a cyber insurance policy against the cyber liabilities that they face. Recent legislation changes in Australia now means that it is more important than ever to consider Cyber Insurance. Click here to find out more.
CORPORATE TRAVEL We will help your business get the right corporate travel policy Cover for business owners and staff travelling interstate and overseas. Corporate Travel Insurance also provides cover for business owners and their families travelling together on personal trips.
