One in three micro enterprises uninsured
According to Verdict Financial, a specialist information provider serving the global financial services markets, almost one in three UK micro-sized enterprises in the UK are uninsured.
Micro enterprises (businesses with 0 to 9 employees) account for 95.5% of all UK SMEs in the private sector and almost a third (29.1%) don't hold any commercial insurance.
So what are the reasons behind this?
Smaller companies:
- Can perceive themselves to be at less risk and therefore less in need of insurance;
- Will have lower budgets to spend on insurance;
- Have less experience purchasing business insurance.
It could be argued that micro-enterprises are most in need of insurance as they have the fewest resources and least capacity to recover from financial losses.
