What Are the Key Differences Between CFC and Marsh McLennan Agency General Liability Insurance?

Coverage Structure and Scope

Marsh McLennan Agency’s overview describes arranging GL after reviewing operations and exposure but publishes no limit on the cited page. CFC’s figure belongs to its combined product, so compare the casualty limit separately from property limits and ask Marsh McLennan Agency to quote the same amount. [4] [7]

Placement and Practical Questions

Marsh McLennan Agency describes evaluating GL against business exposures but does not describe a combined package on its overview.

What Should You Confirm in CFC and Marsh McLennan Agency General Liability Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask CFC which casualty limit applies to this package and whether the combined policy includes the GL extensions needed. [4]
  • Ask Marsh McLennan Agency for its available limit and the insurer’s wording. [7]
