About This Recipe

 

The world of risk identification and assessment, not to mention the fine print in insurance policies, is the stuff of nightmares for many entrepreneurs. The real nightmare, however, is when a risk becomes reality and you don’t have the resources to deal with the consequences.

That’s where business insurance comes in. In this recipe Linar Insurance’s COO Sinah Mabeba demystifies this financial instrument and gives invaluable advice on how to get the cover that’s right for you and your business.

It all starts with identifying and measuring your business risks, then deciding how best to manage each risk and, finally, transferring the risks you cannot manage to an insurer. Sinah explains it all in jargon-free language and gives steps that are easy to follow. She also indicates when you need to call in the experts for advice.
