Movie Insurance Update
Most every entertainment business owns business property, which
may include the building in which you run your operations. Property insurance protects the physical
assets your business owns – such as computers, props, movie sets, camera
equipment, office equipment, buildings, furniture, fixtures, and other
property. Every entertainment business
should have a comprehensive property insurance portfolio to respond to the many
risks associated with property ownership.
We hope to help you indemnify a proactive plan in the event
of a fire, theft, storm, or some other kind of damage that might involve your entertainment insurance
policy. There are a number of actions
you can do to help get the best possible settlement from the insurance company.
