Basin Insurance has been helping small business in Halifax and Nova Scotia by providing commercial insurance brokerage services since 1960. We pride ourselves on being specialists in small business insurance. Many small retailers and office occupancies pay high minimum premiums set by insurers over the last few years and which have steadily increased. We, however, retain access to the lowest small business and retailer rates in the province. Let us lower your commercial insurance costs by tailoring the most progressive forms of coverage at good old fashioned rates.

Insuring Your Business Against A Catastrophe

Could your business survive a major emergency?
Businesses that recover quickly are those that have planned in advance. They know what they need to do as soon as a disaster strikes and, most importantly, they have purchased the right commercial insurance to finance their recovery.

It's also important to develop and maintain an adequate recovery plan to protect yourself against legal liability for the losses that might result from a disaster.

Here's a 4-point catastrophe recovery strategy

Minimize the risk of damage to your small business in advance of an emergency.
Develop a disaster recovery plan.
Review your commercial insurance program. Make sure you have sufficient coverage to pay for the indirect costs of the disaster -- the disruption to your business -- as well as the cost of repair or rebuilding.
Review on a regular basis all the components of your disaster recovery strategy -- fire safety and emergency preparedness measures, business continuation and building repair plans, and your insurance program. Communicate changes to key employees.

If you need help in identifying hazards and assessing risk or more information on how to develop a disaster recovery plan, call us today.
