Insurance Basics

Named Insured

The person or entity whose name is on the policy and who controls it.

The named insured is the legal party on the policy — the person, LLC, or corporation listed by name on the dec page. Only the named insured can make policy changes, cancel, or file a claim. For business policies with multiple related entities (a parent LLC and its subsidiaries), all relevant entities can be listed as named insureds via a named-insured schedule.
