# Utah Crime Insurance Guide

Utah applies UCC Article 4A rules to covered funds transfers; the security procedure in your bank agreement can affect whether an unauthorized payment order binds your account. Compare that rule with your crime policy’s funds-transfer and social-engineering coverage, and preserve records for prompt bank and law-enforcement notice. The computer-crime statute cited here is Utah Code § 76-6-702 (Computer crimes); ask whether the policy covers the resulting loss separately from a deceptive payment instruction.

## What Is Crime?

Crime insurance can help reimburse specified business losses from theft and fraud, including employee theft and forgery. Compare those protections separately and ask whether a payment sent after an impersonation scam is covered. [Read the national Crime guide](/coverage/crime).

## What to Watch for in Utah

### Review the Bank Security Procedure

Utah law uses §§ 70A-4a-202 and 70A-4a-204, security procedure and unauthorized-payment refund. Ask your bank which call-back, token, dual-approval, or other verification steps apply to payment orders, and ask the agent whether the policy responds if a transfer follows a compromised account or spoofed instruction. Confirm the controlling sections with your banker: §§ 70A-4a-202 and 70A-4a-204, security procedure and unauthorized-payment refund. Confirm the controlling sections with your banker: §§ 70A-4a-202 and 70A-4a-204, security procedure and unauthorized-payment refund.[^1]

### Match Computer Crime to Policy Triggers

Utah separately criminalizes conduct under Utah Code § 76-6-702. A criminal statute does not determine whether an insurer must pay your business, so ask the agent to distinguish unauthorized computer access, employee theft, fraudulent instructions, and funds-transfer fraud in the policy definitions and exclusions. The cited state provision is Computer crimes; ask the underwriter to identify the matching insured loss trigger. The cited state provision is Computer crimes; ask the underwriter to identify the matching insured loss trigger.[^2]

### Keep a State Reporting Route Ready

Consumer complaint process If a payment scam also affects a customer or vendor, save the instructions, emails, bank notices, and law-enforcement report, then use the Utah Attorney General’s consumer-fraud route when the matter fits its remit; this complaint process does not replace prompt notice to your bank or insurer. The state's intake page is File a Complaint at https://dcp.utah.gov/complaint/; keep its submission separate from notice to the bank and carrier. The state's intake page is File a Complaint at https://dcp.utah.gov/complaint/; keep its submission separate from notice to the bank and carrier.[^3]

## Who Regulates Insurance in Utah

**Utah Insurance Department.** The Utah Insurance Department regulates licensed insurance companies and producers, offers a public licensee search, and accepts complaints about property/casualty insurance. Complaint jurisdiction depends on policy type and place of issue; employer self-funded plans are outside the Department’s authority.[^4][^5][^6]

- [License lookup](https://insurance.utah.gov/licensee-search/)
- [File a complaint](https://insurance.utah.gov/complaints/)

### Surplus-Lines Tax and Stamping Office

**Reported tax rate:** 4.25% of gross premium including policy fees, plus 0.18% stamping fee For Utah-home-state surplus-lines coverage, Utah charges 4.25% of gross premiums including policy fees, less returned premiums, and the Surplus Line Association of Utah collects a 0.18% stamping fee. Utah law requires a policy notice that the nonadmitted insurer is not protected by any Utah guaranty association; the state’s current guidance says a good-faith admitted-market effort is generally required unless the coverage is on the export list.[^7][^8][^9][^10][^11]

## Providers With Documented State Licenses

These providers publish a national listing for Crime; the state records document licenses for the entities and roles shown below. Some records rely on company-reported information rather than independent regulator verification. A national listing does not confirm that the product is available in Utah; [check the regulator’s license lookup](https://insurance.utah.gov/licensee-search/) and confirm state availability for your business when requesting a quote.

- [Coalition](/insurance-providers/coalition) — **Entity:** Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc.; **role:** Insurance producer, Surplus-lines broker; **checked:** 2026-09-28. **Scope:** Coalition’s license page lists producer and surplus-lines licenses for Coalition Insurance Solutions, Inc. in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The page separately lists insurers; this record covers the brokerage entity only.[^13]
- [Corgi](/insurance-providers/corgi) — **Entity:** Corgi Insurance Services, Inc.; **role:** Insurance producer; **checked:** 2026-09-28. **Scope:** Corgi’s company producer-license table lists 50 jurisdictions: 49 states and the District of Columbia, including DC license 3003091619. New Mexico does not appear in the table and is not included here; the omission does not establish that Corgi is unlicensed there. The company-reported table has no stated as-of date and does not establish product availability.[^14]
- [Vouch](/insurance-providers/vouch) — **Entity:** Vouch Specialty Insurance Services, LLC; **role:** Insurance producer, Surplus-lines broker; **checked:** 2026-09-28. **Scope:** Vouch’s licenses page, effective January 16, 2025, lists producer licenses in all 50 states and DC. Its separate surplus-lines table includes Idaho number 870820, while a footnote says Georgia and Idaho do not issue agency-level surplus-lines licenses. Because those statements conflict for Idaho, this record keeps Idaho producer-only and does not treat the table number as established agency surplus-lines authority. The page is company-reported and does not establish product availability.[^18]

## Questions to Ask Before You Buy in Utah

1. Which Utah Article 4A security procedure does my bank apply to wire transfers, and could that agreement make me responsible for an order I did not intend?
2. Does this policy cover a loss caused by computer access prohibited by Utah Code § 76-6-702, including access through a vendor or employee account?
3. Are social-engineering payment instructions, fraudulent wire transfers, employee theft, and computer fraud separate insuring agreements or sublimits?
4. If the incident affects a customer or vendor, which Utah Attorney General or law-enforcement reporting channel should I use, and what documents should I retain?

## Crime in Utah: FAQ

### Who pays for an unauthorized wire transfer in Utah?

It depends. §§ 70A-4a-202 and 70A-4a-204, security procedure and unauthorized-payment refund governs relevant payment-order questions, including when a commercially reasonable security procedure can make an order effective and what notice duties apply. Ask your bank and agent how the account agreement and crime policy address the same transfer.[^1]

### Where can I report a payment scam in Utah?

The Utah Attorney General provides file a complaint information for consumer fraud matters. A business should also notify its bank, insurer, and law enforcement promptly and retain transaction records. The filing page is File a Complaint at https://dcp.utah.gov/complaint/. The filing page is File a Complaint at https://dcp.utah.gov/complaint/.[^3]
