An owners corporation (also known as a body corporate in some states) manages and maintains common property in strata-titled buildings. Insurance is essential to help maintain and protect shared areas and assets from damage, liabilities or unexpected events.
The policy continues to protect the association, and Office Bearers’ cover (if selected) applies to committee members while they are acting within their role.
