According to the latest surveys by major insurers, many Colorado businesses have a number of critical gaps in their business insurance coverage. The reasons for gaps vary; not fully understanding how certain coverage applies to their business, buying insurance from a captive agent who can’t provide the coverage, thinking their commercial insurance provides the coverage and finally believing they don’t have the risk.
