Coverage Features

Beazley says Commercial Crime protects an organization from loss of money and securities caused by theft by its own employees, plus third-party-related losses such as forgery or alteration, on-premises and in-transit loss, money-order and counterfeit-currency fraud, computer fraud, client-property loss, credit-card fraud and related expense coverage. 1Company-reported. Product-page description of insuring agreements; exclusions, conditions and available sub-limits appear only in the issued policy.

Beazley says its Commercial Crime policy includes a fraudulent-instruction (social-engineering) insuring agreement covering losses from wire transfers made on instructions from someone posing as a vendor, client or authorized employee, and that this cover is conditioned on out-of-band authentication of payment instructions. 1Company-reported.
