CFC vs Newfront Commercial Property Insurance

CFC sells commercial property coverage bundled into one Property & Casualty policy alongside general liability, rather than as a standalone property product. ^5,6Company-reported. Property & casualty product page and its product brochure; the page describes property and general liability as a single policy, not separate offerings.

Newfront brokers commercial property coverage. Its property practice negotiates placement and program structure with carriers rather than underwriting the risk itself. ¹²Company-reported. Property offering page.

The reviewed property & casualty page and brochure describe CFC as the policy designer and point of contact but do not name the insurer that carries the risk for this product. ^5,6Not publicly disclosed. Property & casualty product page and brochure as read on 2026-09-23. CFC's own materials describe it as an underwriting manager rather than a risk-bearing insurer, so a specific carrier for this product would need to come from the quote or declarations.

The reviewed property page does not name the insurer or insurers that would issue a property policy placed through Newfront. ¹²Not publicly disclosed. Property page as read on 2026-09-23; carrier depends on the specific placement.

CFC says it favors manufacturers and distributors, non-manual professional services, e-commerce sellers, retail stores, office premises and annual events policies for this product, and ordinarily declines amusement arcades, nightclubs and bars, manual contractors, aviation and aerospace risks, tour operators, and tire re-moulders or re-treaders. ⁶Company-reported. Brochure's "What we love" and "What we ordinarily decline" lists, published for the combined property & casualty product; actual acceptance depends on individual underwriting.

The property page does not state a size or revenue threshold for eligibility. It lists industries the practice serves, including construction, manufacturing, real estate and retail/wholesale. ¹²Company-reported. Areas of Expertise list on the property page; general industry scope, not an eligibility rule.

CFC says the property side of the policy pays to rebuild or repair a building after a covered loss and includes cover for contents and the resulting business interruption if a loss makes premises unusable. ⁶Company-reported. Brochure's "Property, contents and business interruption cover" section; exact perils and exclusions are set by the policy as issued.

Optional add-ons to the property & casualty policy include legal expenses cover, a cyber and privacy extension, and a product recall extension. ⁶Company-reported. Brochure's "Coverage enhancements" list; availability depends on underwriting.

Newfront lists All-Risks, supply-chain and business-interruption coverage, and catastrophe perils including flood, hurricane/windstorm/earthquake, wildfire and terrorism among its property Key Coverages. It also says it structures shared and layered programs, deductible buy-downs, and parametric insurance using an agreed event trigger. ¹²Company-reported. Property page Key Coverages and No Two Risks are Alike sections; actual policy forms and exclusions govern the issued policy.

CFC's brochure lists a property limit of up to $10,000,000 for this policy; the casualty limit is published separately for the general-liability side of the same product. ⁶Company-reported. Brochure's "Limits" section; the limit actually issued depends on underwriting.

Newfront's property page does not publish limits, deductibles or retentions. It says structures such as deductible buy-downs are set for each client. ¹²Not publicly disclosed. Property page as read on 2026-09-23.
