# CFC Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance

CFC Umbrella Cover

CFC sells an umbrella (excess) policy that sits above a business's primary professional liability, general liability, or cyber policy, or any combination of the three, in a single excess policy. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella cover product page description of what the policy tops up.)

## Issuing Insurer

- **Not publicly disclosed.** The reviewed umbrella cover page does not name the insurer or Lloyd's syndicate carrying this excess risk. CFC's regulatory page lists CFC-affiliated underwriting entities, including its own Lloyd's Syndicate 1988, but does not tie one specifically to this product. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") [2](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/support/regulatory-information/ "Regulatory information") (Scope: Checked the umbrella cover page and CFC's regulatory information page; neither names a carrier for this product.)

## Who It’s For

- CFC targets this excess cover at small and micro businesses and says it will consider a wide range of professions. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella cover product page; specific eligibility for a given business depends on underwriting.)

## Coverage Features

- CFC says it will provide this excess layer regardless of whether the underlying primary policy is placed with CFC or with another insurer. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella cover product page.)

## Limits and Retentions

- **Not found in reviewed sources.** The reviewed umbrella cover page does not publish maximum excess limit amounts or the underlying primary limits it requires; those would appear on a quote. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") (Scope: Umbrella cover page checked on 2026-09-23 has no product brochure content extracted beyond the page text; no numeric limit figures appear on the page itself.)

## How to Apply

- The umbrella cover page directs interested businesses to contact CFC directly rather than describing an online quote or indication tool. [1](https://www.cfc.com/en-us/products/class/excess-umbrella/ "Excess umbrella insurance cover | CFC") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella cover product page call to action.)
