Crime insurance covers theft and fraud of money, securities and other property by employees or outsiders.
What it generally covers
- Employee theft
- Forgery or alteration
- Funds transfer or social engineering fraud, when added
Where gaps often hide
- Property policies generally do not cover employee dishonesty
- Limits should reflect what the business actually handles
- Fraud coverage may require you to verify payment changes in a specific way
Questions worth asking
- What must I do to verify payment changes?
- Does it include social engineering fraud?
- Does the limit match the money and property we handle?
General information only. Actual coverage depends on your policy, and coverage is not in force until confirmed in writing by the agency.
