Key Differences in Crime Insurance

Named Program Versus Catalogue Brokerage

Coalition designs Executive Risks crime and sells it through appointed brokers, naming Zurich American as admitted paper. RiskCube brokers commercial crime as one catalogue line, comparing carrier options, and its disclosures say it is not a carrier and that third-party insurers issue the policies. 4 5 9 8

Published Limit Versus Undisclosed Figures

Coalition says limits up to $10 million per coverage line may be available. RiskCube’s catalogue does not publish crime limits or retentions. 4 9

Who Each Page Talks About

Coalition’s FAQ frames private and not-for-profit U.S. organizations with asset and employee ceilings. RiskCube calls commercial crime essential for startups handling client funds, payment data or a distributed team, and describes protection against employee theft, fraud, forgery and social-engineering attacks. Coalition describes theft, fraud and certain cybercrimes. 4 9

Buying Path

Coalition buyers must use an appointed broker. RiskCube describes a roughly 10-minute digital intake, then AI agents and licensed brokers comparing carriers, aiming for vendor-ready proof of coverage in about 24 hours across catalogue lines including crime. 4 9

What to Confirm in Crime Insurance Quotes

  • Get RiskCube’s issuing carrier and limit; Coalition already publishes a per-line $10 million figure and Zurich as admitted paper. 8 5 4
  • Ask whether RiskCube’s social-engineering wording and Coalition’s “certain cybercrimes” language overlap or leave gaps. 9 4
  • Confirm Coalition’s private or not-for-profit caps versus RiskCube’s startup-funds appetite. 4 9
  • Ask RiskCube what “about 24 hours” to proof of coverage means for crime specifically. 9
