…it's your business insurance
If you're setting up your first business, this may be your first experience of business insurance. Here's a good place to start. Our handy information can give you a quick understanding of the basics, and how you can protect your company – to get the reassurance you need for your new business, right from the start.
Professional indemnity insurance
Put simply, professional indemnity insurance covers the work a business carries out. If you provide advice or offer a service that customers pay for, they could sue you or claim compensation if they feel your work is not up to standard.
It's often a case of one person's word against another's if advice is questioned. Without professional indemnity insurance, the expert legal support to defend a claim against your company – plus any compensation you need to pay to settle it – could be very expensive. It could even cost you your business.
AXA professional indemnity insurance can give your start up business valuable protection you can rely on. To help new businesses like yours, we offer fantastic professional indemnity insurance prices. In case you do something wrong in your work, it's the right cover to have.

Public liability insurance
Most businesses come into contact with members of the public at some point – whether visiting a client's premises or welcoming people onto their own property. If there's even the slightest risk that someone could be hurt or their property could be damaged, public liability insurance provides valuable protection for a new start up business.
Causing even the most minor injuries or damage to somebody else's property can now lead to major claims for compensation. With AXA public liability insurance you know you're protected if accidents happen.

Employers' liability insurance
If anybody works for your new start up company – and that includes full and part time staff, freelancers or volunteers – you need to have employers' liability insurance. It's required by law.
Accidents can happen. If someone you are directly responsible for is injured as a result of working for you, you need to be sure they are properly looked after – and ensure your business is not harmed too. Get protection and peace of mind with AXA employers' liability insurance.

More business insurance
For many people launching a new start up, insurance to cover loss or damage of expensive equipment they've invested in is a must-have.
And because illness or injury could stop a new start up in its tracks, adding personal accident cover to your business insurance could provide cash to keep your company running, or ensure the wellbeing of your family.
