A fire policy is valid only if the policy-holder has an insurable interest in the property covered. Such interest must exist at the time when the loss occurs. To ensure that your insurance policy would deliver when you need it most, it is important to select the right cover. Clauses amending the scope of cover for customizing and widening the basic cover need to be added.

Professional care taken at the beginning can be very beneficial at the time of a claim. For example, in the event of major damage due to fire would your current policy allow for the new replacement costs of your assets or does it only pay the depreciated written down value?
If the policy is worded on a new replacement value basis are you aware of the obligations on your part to ensure that the policy will pay in full ?
Are you paying additional premium unnecessarily by insuring stock at higher values than necessary to ensure full cover for fluctuating stock levels ?
Will your rights under the policy be prejudiced if contractors working in your premises cause a fire ?
