Why it costs this
For a clothing, shoe or bag shop with 3 staff and S$150,000 of contents and stock, renting its premises, with WICA for all staff (wages of S$90,000 a year):
- Insurers price a business package first by what the business does. Each sorts a clothing, shoe or bag shop into one of its own trades: HL Assurance, Retail and Services; MSIG, Service and Retail; Income, Retail; Tokio Marine, Retail Suite; Etiqa, Retail Store/Shop.
- Most packages include a base sum for contents and stock and charge for more: with twice the contents the lowest price is S$643.10.
- Some insurers also price the headcount: with 6 staff the lowest price is S$495.95.
- With WICA, each insurer prices it its own way: on the wages, per head, or a few staff included in the price. A plan whose WICA does not cover every staff member is not counted as the lowest price.
