Insurance requirements mandate specific types and levels of coverage that entities must obtain to mitigate financial risks associated with their operations. These stipulations often arise from regulatory bodies, contractual agreements, or industry best practices, ensuring protection against potential losses, liabilities, or damages. They provide a safety net for stakeholders and promote stability within an industry. Adhering to these requirements is essential for operational legitimacy and risk management.
