Business use

One of three classes of use (class 2) often used by motor insurers in fixing car insurance premiums. The policy covers social, domestic and pleasure use and business use. It excludes commercial travelling and carrying passengers for hire or reward but car sharing is allowed as long as ‘lifts’ where money changes hands are not part of a business arrangement. This limited business class is more costly than Class 1, where the business use element is limited to the policyholder in person, but lower than Class 3 which includes commercial travelling as defined in the policy.

Businessowners policy (BOP)

A package policy that provides both property and liability coverage for eligible small businesses. BOPs are written on special coverage forms that are generally very similar to their monoline property and liability form counterparts, but they typically have some unique features that make them especially advantageous for businesses that qualify. Both the American Association of Insurance Services (AAIS) and the Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO), offer BOP programs for use by their member insurers. Also, many insurers have their own BOP programs.

A package of property and liability insurance for small and medium size businesses, the BOP owes its origin to the success of the homeowners policy.
