Key Differences in Commercial Property Insurance

Broad commercial property offering versus digitally quoted small-business coverage

AIG names hospitals, universities, and global manufacturers among its potential property customers and describes risk engineers who work on loss mitigation. Coverdash brokers standalone property for small businesses, startups, and e-commerce sellers with buildings or leased spaces, equipment, or inventory. A small buyer can ask Coverdash about its digital quote-to-purchase route; larger or more complex schedules should ask AIG’s broker about its risk engineering and program structure. 3 7

AIG engineering and Coverdash standalone choice

AIG describes property insurance for business assets; Coverdash sells property as a standalone product, separate from its BOP that bundles property, general liability, and business interruption. Coverdash also describes a digital quote-to-purchase process and optional additions such as equipment breakdown. Buyers can compare a focused property policy with a package, but should check which interruption coverage is actually in each quote. 3 7

What to Confirm in Commercial Property Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Coverdash which carrier and standalone or BOP structure the digital quote proposes, including limits and deductibles. 7
  • Ask AIG to identify the policy issuer and confirm covered assets and business-income terms. 3
