What does high net worth insurance cover?
Owning a significant number of assets often leads to unique insurance challenges. Rather than having to arrange numerous insurances for each individual belonging, it’s far simpler and cost effective to place them under one policy with a specialist high net worth insurer.
Bespoke high net worth insurances allow you to cover your valuables, profile and lifestyle needs, whilst ensuring that your belongings are precisely detailed. Most high net worth insurances include:
- Buildings Insurance. Most policies cover high-value estates including buildings that are listed, as well as second and overseas properties. They will also cover outbuildings associated with the dwelling including garages, swimming pools, tennis courts and stables. Some will even cover investment property portfolios (depending on your individual needs). It is important to make sure that you check how much your insurer will cover you for in advance of taking out the policy.
- Contents Insurance. This is generally defined as the personal property you own, such as furniture, furnishings and designer wear. Most high net worth insurance policies cover personal effects on a worldwide basis, so that those with homes abroad do not have to worry about taking their personal belongings with them when they travel.
- Valuables Insurance. From gadgets and gizmos to arts and antiques, the value of personal property can quickly add-up. Whilst standard insurance policies can cover you up to a certain amount, it is unlikely that they will cover costly items. It is therefore important that your most expensive belongings are valued individually.
- People Cover. Aside from tangible objects and wealth, high net worth insurance can also cover individuals who are in high profile professions, sports people, actors and singers, should anything happen to them too.
