COMPREHENSIVE PROTECTION FOR YOUR PROPERTY THROUGH AIC

Description

Building owners bear more responsibility today than ever

Why building owner liability alone is not enough – securing construction project risks properly. A construction project is no longer a purely technical undertaking, but a complex interplay of planning, execution, regulatory requirements and economic interests. For building owners, this means: you are at the centre of project risks – with a responsibility that spans all project phases and can entail far-reaching liability consequences in an emergency.

The central risk areas for building owners

Building owners today face a wide range of liability risks that extend well beyond classic construction defects:

  • Traffic safety obligations: securing the construction site and all access routes for third parties
  • Selection liability: obligation to choose suitable architects, specialist planners and executing companies
  • Supervision obligations: ensuring proper construction execution and organisation on site
  • Liability as property owner: responsibility for hazards arising from the building plot and the structure being built

A breach of these statutory duties can lead to substantial compensation claims – with liability consequences that can affect building owners to a considerable extent in individual cases.

Building owner liability insurance

The indispensable foundation of every construction project. Building owner liability insurance protects you in your capacity as building owner against the financial consequences of statutory liability claims. It applies whenever third parties demand compensation due to a breach of duty.

In particular, the following is covered:

  • Your personal liability as building owner
  • Your liability as house and land owner for the plot to be developed and the structure being built

Coverage limits should therefore be designed in line with the risk. At AIC, coverage limits generally apply as lump sums for personal injury, property damage and financial losses – flexibly adaptable to the size and complexity of your project.

Why building owners need to think ahead today

Individual policies create effort. Comprehensive insurance creates security and does justice to the complexity of construction. Different policies, interfaces and areas of responsibility often lead to demarcation issues, delays and unnecessary uncertainty in an emergency. What is needed is therefore an apportionable comprehensive insurance for everyone involved in construction, including planning and subcontractor services. Project-based distribution of insurance costs replaces individual insurance certificates over the entire term and sustainably reduces the building owner's monitoring obligations.
