A running policy is a type of insurance policy that covers property that frequently changes in quantity or location, such as jewelry. It is also known as a floating policy or blanket policy. This type of policy is useful for businesses that have inventory that moves around frequently, such as a jewelry store or a construction company.
For example, a jewelry store may have a running policy that covers all of the jewelry in their possession, even if it is being transported to a different location or being shown to a customer. This policy provides coverage for the store's inventory, regardless of where it is located or how much of it there is.
