What is a bailee's customers policy primarily used for?

  1. Covering loss or damage to a bailee's own property

  2. Covering loss or damage to customers' property in custody

  3. Providing general liability coverage

  4. Covering legal fees related to property disputes

The correct answer is: Covering loss or damage to customers' property in custody

A bailee's customers policy is designed specifically to protect a bailee—a person or entity that temporarily holds someone else's property—for loss or damage to the property of their customers while it is in their custody. This type of insurance is essential for businesses that handle clients' property, such as dry cleaners, repair shops, or storage facilities, as it covers the liability arising from the care, custody, or control of items belonging to clients. By focusing on the loss or damage to customers' property, this policy ensures that the bailee can fulfill their responsibility without facing significant financial burdens due to unforeseen incidents. In contrast, the other options highlight different areas not typically covered by a bailee's customers policy, such as coverage for the bailee's own property, general liability concerns unrelated to the property in custody, or legal fees, which are more associated with liability or dispute resolution rather than property protection.
