What are the security fleet criteria for RLI E&S auto insurance?

Security transportation insurance solutions are based on several factors, including but not limited to issuance of a non-renewal or cancellation notice, claim issues (frequency and/or severity), lack of industry experience/being a new venture and the need for dedicated loss control support. $50,000 minimum premium. Mixed fleets accepted. Any modifications or permanently attached equipment must be disclosed. Risks with armed and unarmed guards are acceptable. Security staffing & placement, security installation, security training or ATM processing/servicing/repair/maintenance. Accounts transporting valuables in non-armored vehicles. Higher-risk territories including South Florida, South Texas, Los Angeles County in California, San Francisco County in California or Cook County in Illinois. No radius limitations (local, intermediate, long distance). Can post filings (federal and state). Business owners willing to work with the underwriter and loss control team to implement necessary requirements and recommendations with an emphasis on prioritizing safety and loss control. Hired and non-owned liability can be standalone or in addition to fleet coverage.

What risks are ineligible for RLI security fleet insurance?

Ineligible risks include: Mid-term submission looking for lower premium, vehicles with 15+ passenger capacity including the driver, accounts with large seasonal exposures, large subcontractor exposure when federal filings are not required (will not offer hired auto coverage), large subcontractor exposure when federal filings are required (will not offer terms on this risk), intermingled businesses unless we're offering terms on all exposures, and risks with a clear history of egregious behavior surrounding loss control, safety and compliance.

What are the submission clearance requirements?

Submission clearance requirements include: Account narrative, strategy and market position (send copy of cancellation or non-renewal notice if applicable), completed RLI Supplemental Questionnaire: New Business, five years of currently valued hard copy loss runs valued within 60 days or less from proposed inception with details on all open losses and losses over $50,000, vehicle schedule in Excel with licensing state, garaging city/state, year/make/model/VIN, specific use, seating capacity, disclosure of any modifications or permanently attached equipment and stated amount, and driver schedule in Excel including date of birth, date of hire, driver's license number and state.
