TIPS

For construction make sure to ask for the certificate of completion.

For determining the sum insured:

  • Buildings, fixtures and fitting needs to be on new replacement value (NRV) meaning the cost of rebuilding the building (estimated cost of rebuilding by square meter multiplied by the number of built square meters)
  • Stocks and raw materials to be on cost basis except for certain raw materials which have a volatile price to be on replacement cost basis including delivery to site
  • Machineries and Equipment to be on new replacement value or market value. If based on market value and if they need repair or replacement, the average clause will apply unless similar 2nd hand damaged item/spare parts are available. In case of total loss, the indemnity will be based on market value.
