Key Differences in Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance

Exposure That Triggers an Excess Layer

Relm says excess liability can suit businesses with higher-than-average exposure, including large vehicle fleets, significant public interaction, or large contracts, and calls out energy, manufacturing, and transportation as high-risk industries. Insureon markets umbrella as added liability for businesses but does not identify industries or contract thresholds in its overview. If a contract or fleet drives the request, ask Relm’s broker to explain the recommended limit and ask Insureon how its market evaluates the same exposure. 6 3

Excess Responds After Underlying Limits

Relm describes excess liability as additional protection that responds after the limits of underlying liability policies are exhausted. Insureon describes commercial umbrella as protection above underlying policies but does not publish the layer amount, attachment point, or policy terms. Compare the scheduled underlying limits and the amount of excess requested in each written proposal; the public descriptions do not establish the final terms. 6 3

What to Confirm in Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Relm’s broker to recommend a limit based on your contracts, fleet, and public exposure, and identify the underlying policies. 6
  • Ask Insureon for the available limit, attachment point, and which of your primary liability policies it can schedule. 3
