[Human-readable page](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/corgi/umbrella-excess) # Corgi Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance Corgi Commercial Umbrella Liability 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. [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella product page description.) ## Issuing Insurer - **Not publicly disclosed.** 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. [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Scope: Umbrella product page as read on 2026-09-23, checked against the site's general underwriting disclosure language.) ## Coverage Features - 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). [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: 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. [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Umbrella product page "Six Scenarios" section; each still requires the matching underlying policy to be in place and exhausted.) ## Limits and Retentions - 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. [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: 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.) ## Risk Services - **Not found in reviewed sources.** The reviewed umbrella page does not describe risk-management or loss-control services tied specifically to the umbrella layer. [1](https://www.corgi.insure/umbrella "Commercial Umbrella Insurance for Startups | Corgi Insurance") (Scope: Umbrella product page as read on 2026-09-23.) ## How to Apply - 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.
