Disability Business Overhead Expense Insurance
Disability Overhead Expense Insurance provides benefits to pay covered business expenses while you are disabled.
The big value and important reason to consider business overhead expense insurance is to KEEP YOUR DOORS OPEN and your business going while you recover.
In the event you cannot recover, your business will remain a GOING CONCERN which you can consider selling for a FAIR PRICE and not be forced into a FIRE SALE.
This coverage gives you the time you need to:
- Hire a replacement
- Decide whether you are able to come back to work, or;
- Sell the business which you have worked so hard to create
