Fleet Policy
Fleet vehicles are groups of motor vehicles owned or leased by a business, government agency or other organization rather than by an individual or family. Typical examples are vehicles operated by corporates, car rental companies, public utilities, public bus companies, school buses etc. In addition, many businesses purchase or lease fleet vehicles to deliver goods to customers, or for sales representatives to travel to clients. Protecting all your vehicles using different insurance policies can be operationally challenging and financially expensive. The Fleet Insurance policy is the solution to this problem.
A Motor Fleet policy typically covers the following:
- 5 vehicles or more
- Vehicle types from Cars, Buses, Pickups/Vans etc
- Damage to the vehicles as well as injury to the driver/passenger if they are in a company vehicle
- Loss of or damage to vehicles caused by theft, fire, natural calamities and other unexpected causes
- Third Party injury or death and damage caused to their property
A Motor Fleet policy can also be tailormade according to your company’s specific requirements:
- Public or private hire usage (for private drivers, rent a car, limo transfers or taxis)
