Provider coverage details

CFC

  • role: CFC's reviewed pages describe general liability as part of one Property & Casualty policy alongside commercial property; they do not describe a standalone general liability product. Property & casualty product page and its product brochure; the page describes property and general liability as a single policy, not separate offerings.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • insurer: The reviewed property & casualty page and brochure describe CFC as the policy designer and point of contact but do not name the insurer that carries the risk for this product. Property & casualty product page and brochure as read on 2026-09-23. CFC's own materials describe it as an underwriting manager rather than a risk-bearing insurer, so a specific carrier for this product would need to come from the quote or declarations.not-disclosedSource ↗Source ↗
  • coverage: The general liability portion covers products and completed operations, pollution, tenants' legal liability, non-owned and hired auto costs, employee benefits liability and medical expenses. Brochure's "General liability" section; exact wording and exclusions are set by the policy as issued.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: CFC says the policy covers legal costs and compensation for bodily injury or property damage claims from third parties, plus personal and advertising liability such as defamatory content, privacy violations and advertising copyright infringement. Brochure's "Bodily injury and property damage liability" and "Personal and advertising liability" sections.company-reportedSource ↗
  • limits: CFC's brochure lists a casualty limit of up to $6,000,000 for this policy; the property limit is published separately for the commercial-property side of the same product. Brochure's "Limits" section; the limit actually issued depends on underwriting.company-reportedSource ↗
  • eligibility: CFC says it favors manufacturers and distributors, non-manual professional services, e-commerce sellers, retail stores, office premises and annual events policies, and ordinarily declines amusement arcades, nightclubs and bars, manual contractors, aviation and aerospace risks, tour operators, and tire re-moulders or re-treaders. Brochure's "What we love" and "What we ordinarily decline" lists; actual acceptance depends on individual underwriting.company-reportedSource ↗
  • claims: CFC says it has handled and paid tens of thousands of general liability and professional indemnity claims for businesses of all sizes. CFC's claims page, "Specialty" section; a combined general-liability and professional-indemnity figure with no separate general-liability count and no independent audit.company-reportedSource ↗

Corgi

  • role: Corgi sells Commercial General Liability (CGL) as a standalone policy and includes it in every startup package tier it lists, from Pre-Seed & Seed through Series A, Growth Stage and the Custom Package. Homepage package contents and the CGL product page.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • insurer: Corgi's CGL page states the policy is underwritten by Technology Risk Retention Group, Inc., a risk retention group, rather than one of Corgi's admitted carrier affiliates. CGL scenario note 1 and policy boundaries section.company-reportedSource ↗
  • coverage: The standard CGL form (CORG-CGL-0100) is occurrence-based and covers third-party bodily injury, property damage and a narrow list of personal-and-advertising-injury offenses, but excludes patent infringement, professional errors, cyber incidents, and damage to property in the policyholder's care, custody or control. CGL coverage table and scenario/policy notes; illustrative summary, not policy wording.company-reportedSource ↗
  • limits: Corgi shows illustrative CGL limits of up to $1 million per occurrence and $2 million general aggregate, a $100,000 damage-to-premises sublimit, $5,000 medical payments per person, and a $2,000 per-claim self-insured retention; actual amounts appear on the declarations page. CGL coverage table, described as illustrative and possibly differing from the issued policy.company-reportedSource ↗
  • services: The reviewed CGL page does not describe risk-control, premises-safety or loss-prevention services for policyholders beyond the coverage itself. CGL product page as read on 2026-09-23.not-foundSource ↗
  • application: You can request a CGL quote through Corgi's online instant-quote flow, and Corgi says eligible applicants can complete the application and bind the same day rather than going through a multi-week broker-review cycle. CGL page call to action and homepage self-serve description.company-reportedSource ↗Source ↗
  • claims: Corgi says the CGL insurer has a duty to defend covered claims, meaning it appoints and pays for defense counsel on the policyholder's behalf, subject to the applicable retention.
