Additional Information


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.
