EOFY has a habit of arriving faster than anyone plans for. For months it's “we’ve got time”, then suddenly it's “why is it June already?”

If you haven’t already, it’s worth doing a final sweep of your insurance program - policies, values, new exposures, and anything that’s changed but didn’t quite make it onto the review list.

Last chance to tick the boxes properly before the year rolls over.

When a claim is made, the policy wording gets tested in ways most businesses never expect.

At Acuity, claims support is active, not passive. We interpret wording, challenge decisions where needed, and stay in the detail so our clients aren't left arguing technical points with insurers alone.

It's all about helping our clients be in a position to move on.

We know that insurance often sits in the “we’ll sort that later” category of business admin. However as we approach the end of the financial year, it's worth giving us a call to ensure that your insurance is up to date. Are your policies aligned with the new assets purchased? The expansion of business? Or any other changes you've made in FY26.

Talk with us on +61 417 589 655 to kick that insurance item off you admin list.

Professional indemnity claims rarely explode out of nowhere.

They usually start small. A vague scope, a rushed email, a detail that seemed too minor to document at the time.

Then months later, it matters a lot.

A few habits make a big difference:

1. Write down advice properly the first time.
2. Be clear about what you are (and aren’t) responsible for. Ambiguity is expensive.
3. Treat emails like they might be read in a dispute one day.

Good processes don’t just make work smoother. They're often the thing standing between you and an avoidable claim.

While engineering is built on precision it’s rarely the big, obvious risks that cause trouble. More often it’s the small decisions made along the way. The ones that seemed harmless at the time. The “non-issues” that quietly come back once the pressure is on.

And when a project is moving fast, those little things can add up quickly.

That’s where it pays to have the right insurance from the get go. Not to slow projects down, but to give you confidence when the unexpected shows up.

For engineers, surveyors, architects and others in professional service, your advice is your product and your service. And like any product, it needs to stand up once it’s out in the real world. So, it's good to know what risks you might face in providing advice, because even small oversights can lead to significant claims, legal costs, and reputational damage.

Common risks for professionals
1. Errors or omissions - a mistake in advice, calculations, or documentation
2. Failure to meet professional duty - when expectations and delivery don't quite align
3. Miscommunication or misunderstanding - usually unintended, but often where disputes start
4. Breach of confidentiality – where sensitive information isn’t handled as carefully as intended

EOFY tends to bring out the spreadsheets, receipts, and a sudden appreciation for the word “deduction”.

But while you're sorting your tax affairs, it’s also the perfect time to give your insurance a quick EOFY check-in. Think of it as balancing another important set of books - your risk.

Pull together your policies, claims history, and any big business changes from the past year. New equipment? More staff? Bigger contracts? All the good stuff that helps your business grow can also change your risk profile.

A quick review now means your cover actually keeps up with your business. Need help getting your insurance sorted? Contact us via [email protected] or on +61 417 589 655.

Accidents can happen in any business. The question is whether you’re protected when they do.

Public Liability Insurance helps protect businesses if a third party, such as a customer, supplier or member of the public, is injured or has their property damaged as a result of the business’s activities.

A key component of this is the cover for legal costs, as well as resulting compensation costs. Even if you’ve done nothing wrong, the cost of fighting a legal case can be catastrophic to a business.

Businesses that commonly benefit from this insurance include:
🔹 Professional services
🔹 Surveyors, Architects & Draftspeople
🔹 Manufacturers and wholesalers
🔹 Trades and contractors
🔹 Property owners and landlords

Is your insurance renewal a real review… or just a rubber stamp? Have you thought to yourself, “I’m not sure about this”?

Does it feel like your broker understands what you do?

Renewal time shouldn’t feel like a tick-box exercise. A good broker should be:

- Reviewing how your business has evolved
- Challenging whether your cover still fits
- Exploring better options in the market

Because your business deserves more than a renewal reminder and an invoice.

If you’re looking for a broker who takes a proactive approach, we’d love to talk. Email us at [email protected] today.
