Corgi vs Relm Insurance Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance

Corgi sells Commercial Umbrella as excess capacity that sits above a startup's scheduled underlying CGL, HNOA, and EPLI policies rather than as a standalone primary policy. ⁶Company-reported. Umbrella product page description.

Relm markets Excess Liability Insurance as a casualty line brokers can place for clients whose underlying liability limits may not be sufficient. ⁹Company-reported. Relm line-of-business page (Relm sells through brokers); not a statement identifying the issuing insurer for a given placement.

The umbrella product page does not name the issuing carrier for this line; Corgi's general disclosures say coverage may be underwritten by affiliated or third-party carriers depending on product and jurisdiction, without identifying which entity covers umbrella specifically. ⁶Not publicly disclosed. Umbrella product page as read on 2026-09-23, checked against the site's general underwriting disclosure language.

The reviewed page does not name a specific issuing insurer for excess liability placements. ⁹Not publicly disclosed. Line-of-business page as read on 2026-09-23; a specific placement's insurer is product- and jurisdiction-specific.

Not described in the reviewed sources.

Relm says excess liability benefits companies with higher-than-average liability exposure, such as those with large vehicle fleets, significant public interaction or large contracts, and calls it especially important for high-risk industries like energy, manufacturing or transportation. ⁹Company-reported. Casualty page 'What is Excess Liability Insurance?' section; not a guarantee of eligibility for a particular company.

Corgi describes the umbrella as occurrence-based and follow-form: it attaches once a scheduled underlying policy's per-occurrence or aggregate limit is exhausted, matches that policy's terms and exclusions, and can drop down to respond as primary if an underlying policy is unavailable due to insurer insolvency or aggregate exhaustion (but generally not for a coverage exclusion). ⁶Company-reported. Umbrella product page glossary and FAQ; actual attachment and drop-down terms are set by the issued policy.

Corgi lists six scenarios the umbrella extends to: CGL excess, hired-auto excess, EPLI excess, personal and advertising injury excess, products-completed operations excess, and CGL aggregate refresh. ⁶Company-reported. Umbrella product page "Six Scenarios" section; each still requires the matching underlying policy to be in place and exhausted.

Relm says excess liability adds protection once the limits of a company's underlying liability policies are exhausted. ⁹Company-reported. Casualty page 'What is Excess Liability Insurance?' section; the issued policy and declarations control.

Corgi's illustrative umbrella example shows a $5 million per-occurrence and $5 million aggregate layer with a $0 self-insured retention above the scheduled underlying limits. ⁶Company-reported. Illustrative policy structure ('Anatomy of a $5M Umbrella Policy') on the product page; actual limits and retention depend on the issued policy and the schedule of underlying.

Corgi's homepage lists Commercial Umbrella Liability under specialty coverages with a 1-14 day turnaround, distinct from the policies marked for an instant online quote. ²Company-reported. Homepage policy-card labeling as of 2026-09-23.

Relm says brokers will always advise on the exact excess liability limits a client needs, framing the product as broker-guided rather than self-service. ⁹Company-reported. Casualty page 'What is Excess Liability Insurance?' section; no quote was requested during this research.
