Risky Times When You May Need More Life Insurance

Posted on by AgentInsure

For some, insurance may seem complex or even a bit boring. At Fuhriman Insurance Agency of Boise, ID, we have a different point of view. We see insurance as a valuable financial and asset protection product that helps secure our clients’ futures. Insurance can evolve and adjust with changes in your life.

A good example is life insurance. There are times when risks in your life can be reduced through an increase in life insurance. Here are a few.

When You Have a Child

Having children increases your responsibilities and risks. These responsibilities last through a child’s early adulthood, so parents should increase life insurance during this period.

When You Buy a Home

Whether you finance a home for 15, 20, or 30 years, additional life insurance can cover your remaining mortgage balance. Many will buy 20—or 30-year term insurance to provide additional protection during these years.

When Buying or Starting a Business

Buying or starting a business gives you additional responsibilities to your business partners and employees. If you are also a key employee, that increases the risks to your business in the event of your death. Additional life insurance can help cover the risks and responsibilities of ownership until your company can mature.

Peak Earning Years

The amount of life insurance you carry should be reflective of your earning power. When your income is rising, so should the life insurance you carry.

Exploring Lesser-Known Commercial Insurance Coverages

Posted on by AgentInsure

Certain commercial insurance coverages are often overlooked when protecting your Boise, ID business but can be crucial. At Fuhriman Insurance Agency, we’re able to offer a variety of lesser-known commercial insurance coverages that can safeguard your business against risks that likely wouldn’t otherwise be covered. Here are three to consider:

1. Crime Coverage

Crime coverage is a commercial insurance protection specifically for stealing. It may cover losses resulting from theft, fraud, or embezzlement. 

While theft by a burglar is frequently covered under commercial property coverage, this coverage commonly excludes internal theft by employees. For embezzlement and other forms of employee theft, there’s crime coverage.

2. Keyman Coverage

Keyman coverage, or key person insurance, is important if your Boise, ID business highly relies on you (or another essential person). This coverage might help cover costs if a critical employee becomes disabled, passes away, or otherwise can’t run the business. Costs may be paid until another qualified employee can be found, or a lump-sum payment might be given to investors if the company must close.

(Having an employee temporarily not work due to illness typically isn’t covered, nor is an employee leaving for another job.)

3. Business Income Coverage

Business income coverage might help your business survive a prolonged and unexpected interruption financially. If your business must temporarily close due to a covered event, such as a fire or natural disaster, the coverage could pay supplemental payments to cover utilities, rent, wages, and other expenses.
