Insurance policies sold to corporate policyholders protect against a wide variety of risks, including liability or loss resulting from property damage, bodily injury, business-auto policies, defective products, data breaches and other internet-related claims, mass torts, business interruption, man-made and natural disasters, business torts, environmental damage, employment claims, professional liability, and crime/fraud. The major types of insurance policies purchased by corporate policyholders include general liability policies, directors and officers liability policies, fiduciary liability policies, employment practices liability policies, errors and omissions and professional liability policies, first-party property and business interruption policies, cyber liability, title insurance, marine insurance, crime/fraud policies, environmental impairment policies, and a wide variety of specialty products, such as cargo policies. Insurance programs sold to and purchased by corporate policyholders can include several layers of insurance, with a primary insurance policy that sits above a deductible (or self-insured retention) and, at times, multiple layers of excess policies sitting above the primary policy. Large claims can often implicate coverage under dozens of policies sometimes spanning years or decades. 

In contrast, individual policyholders typically purchase homeowners or renters insurance, auto insurance, life insurance, health insurance, disability and/or long-term care insurance, and sometimes specialty insurance, such as coverage for jewelry or works of art, travel insurance, etc.
