HELPFUL DEFINITIONS

Functional Fitness Training Floater (FFTF)

This coverage "floats" with your business property that is not a permanent structure. This "floater" coverage protects you for total loss, damage and theft of your movable business property.

Your business property means movable items owned by your business (equipment, computers, supplies, furniture, etc.). The property could be located in your home office, office building, gym, studio, or other location you work from. In addition, your clients' property is also covered while it's under your care (such as during a training session). Coverage only applies to equipment in the United States.

Business Personal Property (BPP)

Business Personal Property (commonly called BPP) means the movable items owned by your business (such as equipment, computers, supplies, furniture, etc.). The property could be located in your home office, office building, gym, studio or other location you work from.

BPP also includes property of others in your "care, custody, and control," which basically means their property is in your possession.

Common causes of loss include but are not limited to theft, fire, water damage, vandalism, and hail.

Business Interruption & Extra Expense (BI/EE)

Business Interruption & Extra Expense insurance provides coverage when your business shuts down temporarily due to a covered loss (e.g., theft, fire, water damage, vandalism, and hail). This helps replace your income and covered expenses like rent, payroll and other financial responsibilities during times when your business is not able to operate.

The coverage amount is the dollar amount you choose that the insurance company will pay total during the time your business is unable to operate. We recommend planning for a maximum of 3 months of business income and expenses.

Tenants’ Improvements & Betterments

Tenants' Improvements and Betterments coverage is a type of property insurance for an insured who is leasing space in a building and needs permanently installed fixtures or improvements to perform their business functions (for example, mirrors and a barre installed in a dance studio).

The tenant adds those features at their own expense. However, those fixtures or improvements become the property of the landlord unless there is a loss or damage to those improvements. In that case, the tenant is responsible for repairing or replacing those fixtures and improvements. This coverage is intended for those types of repairs and replacements.

Total Insurable Value (TIV)

The Total Insurable Value (commonly called TIV) is the total you want covered on the policy! Simply add together the value of your Business Personal Property and your Business Income & Expenses amounts.

Example:
Betty's Barre Studio owns $35,000 in business personal property (mirrors, barre, flooring & audio equipment used for classes) and her monthly business income & expenses are around $15,000 (rent, income, payroll). Betty will want to plan for the following coverage amount:

3 months of business income & expenses:   $45,000
Business personal property: + $35,000
