Standard liability policies have upper limits on how much they can pay out. If your business requires coverage greater than this amount, then Excess Liability Insurance can step in - in the event of a claim, it will pay the extra amount outstanding once your initial policy's limit has been reached.
Why don't standard policies have high enough limits already?
Mostly, they do. Excess Liability covers businesses, individuals, and situations, where the risk is greater than the normal risk covered by the primary policy. Put simply, some businesses have more to lose than others - but policies have to be designed on careful analysis of average risk trends over time. So if your business is an outlier in its needs, you can still take out the general policy, but will require Excess Liability Insurance to secure the extra cover you'd need in the event of a claim.
Excess Liability insurance can pick up where your General Liability (GL) leaves off. If your risk exposure is higher than your GL coverage limit, you may need this additional insurance.
