ProBiz Excel Protect is a comprehensive insurance specially designed for small and medium size businesses, offering protection to the business owner for damage on its property due to fire, riot, malicious damage, water damage, and it can also be extended to cover damage due to earthquake, typhoon, flood, explosion, and other accidents.

ProBiz Excel Protect can be customized to suit the insurance needs of the Insured. The coverage can be expanded and the amount of insurance can be increased, depending on the requirements of the Insured’s business.

The protection offered under the ProBiz Excel Protect can include Personal Accident for the employees, loss of money and property due to fraudulent or dishonest acts of its employees, loss of money from robbery or burglary, breakdown of its machines, additional cost of doing business resulting from an insured event, and general liability to third party for property damage, bodily injury including legal expenses in case of a lawsuit, and many more.

The covered risks are small and medium size commercial businesses with not more than Php100M property value. These include schools, churches, offices, medical, dental and optical clinics, car parks, dormitory, private & public boarding houses, display/ displaying samples only, motels and/or lodging houses, private membership clubs, retail stores other than public markets, restaurants, amusement halls; dance halls, building with retail stores, boutiques, shops as tenants, cinemas, theatres, gas stations, art galleries, furniture display stores, & mall tenants.

Businesses to be covered should be legitimate and must be duly licensed to operate.

This includes liability to Third Party for bodily injury and property damage like legal costs and expenses, fire and explosion legal liability, premise medical payment, food and drinks liability, among others.

For the building, building improvements, machinery and equipment, the policy requires that the sum insured should equal the sound value, or the actual cash value, or the depreciated value of the property. This is also the basis of indemnity under the policy. However, it can be insured under a replacement value or “new for old” and should be specified in the application form and in the policy.

Stocks or goods for sale, on the other hand, may be valued under invoice cost, purchase order or the selling price.

Coverage under Replacement Value requires that the Sum Insured under the policy should be the amount to replace the property insured at the time of loss. It’s the “new for old” basis such that it will not deduct the depreciation cost even for properties that are not new.

Sound Value or Actual Cash Value or the Depreciated Value is the amount equivalent to the Replacement Value of the property less depreciation.

Note that it is required under the policy that the Sum Insured should equal the agreed valuation (Replacement Value, or Sound Value, or Actual Cash Value or Depreciated Value). In the event that the Sum Insured is less than the agreed valuation, then the payment of the claim under the policy is reduced proportionately.

The replacement value on renewal may not be the same as the value of a property that is affected by inflation, supply and demand, and/or foreign currency movements (especially for imported items). It is advisable to review and update insured amounts regularly so as to avoid any under-insurance.

Properties of more than 25 years of age are subject to inspection, and may be insured if the building is properly maintained and housekeeping is good.

We may require inspection depending on the nature of the business, amount to be insured, or the location of the risk. An application form and pictures will also do.

Condominium insurance provides protection to owners of residential condo units, from damage or loss to the unit, its unit improvements, contents and personal belongings.Cocogen’s Condo Excel Protect also covers personal accident for household members, and general liability to third party for property damage, bodily injury including legal expenses in case of a lawsuit.

The condominium association may secure insurance for damage to the condo building and the common areas, but the details of the insurance cover are not often disclosed to all condo unit owners. The amount of insurance may not be adequate to fully cover the condo building and common areas, or it may not cover a particular event especially fire, or natural catastrophic events. The condominium insurance provides additional protection to the condo unit owners.

The condominium insurance will cover properties of the condo unit owners that the condominium association is not obligated to secure insurance for. The condominium insurance can cover improvements to the condo unit including its contents and personal properties of the condo unit owner. The condominium insurance can also include assessment by the condominium association to the condo unit owner for its share of the damage on the condo building as well as the common areas for whatever reason, if the cause of the said damage is an accident covered under the condominium insurance.

If allowed, it makes sense to check the insurance coverage of your condo building with the condominium association, so you can secure the most appropriate protection for you.

Condo Excel Protect can be customized to suit the insurance needs of the Insured. The coverage can be expanded and the amount of insurance can be increased, depending on the requirements of the Insured.

The protection offered under the Condo Excel protect can include Personal Accident for the household family members and Kasambahay, liability to third parties for accidental damage to property or bodily injury, Alternative Accommodation in case the condo unit is rendered not livable by an insured event, special assessment on the condo unit owner by the condominium association in case of damage to the condo building and common areas caused by an event covered under the condominium insurance, and many more.

Yes, unit owners and tenants can apply for Condo Excel Plus

The Actual Cash Value or the Depreciated Value of the Sound Value will be applicable to the building and contents.

Yes. Tenants of the condo unit may secure condominium insurance to cover their properties – contents and personal properties, as well as the other coverage in the package.

Properties of more than 25 years will be subject to inspection, and may be insured if the condo building is properly maintained.

There is no need for prior inspection of the condo building or the condo unit (unless it is 25 years old and older as stated above). Clients just need to fill out and complete the information required in the application form. Cocogen may still request for inspection depending on the circumstances.

Yes. Renovation increases the amount or the value of the property which means the sum insured must also be adjusted. Contact your COCOGEN agent to ensure your property is adequately covered.

The inspector’s responsibility is to check and assess the risk condition of the property to be insured.
