Start with the coverage underneath

Commercial excess is a separate request from commercial umbrella. The market must review the underlying coverage and account before confirming whether it can offer the additional limits your business needs.

  • Current coverage

    Have your existing liability policies and limits available for the review.

  • Business and location

    Describe your operations and where the business is located. State and class availability vary by market.

  • Placement history

    Tell us whether insurers have declined the request and have loss information ready. A previous declination is a review question, not an automatic rejection.

  • Excess is not umbrella

    The markets treat excess and umbrella as separate requests. The broker reviews the underlying insurance for your excess request.

Questions we get asked

Is excess the same as umbrella coverage?

The available markets distinguish the two requests. The broker reviews the underlying insurance and the terms offered for your specific excess request.

Can I request coverage after another insurer declined?

Yes, you can describe the prior declination in the initial request. Market availability and underwriting still determine whether coverage can be offered.
