Schedule of Insurance / Insurance Summary

A clean schedule of every policy you carry: line, carrier, AM Best rating, policy number, term, limits, deductible, premium, and broker. The Excel version totals premium and flags expirations; the Word version is the summary table lenders, boards, landlords, and buyers ask for.

Excel + Word

Who it is for

Business owners preparing for a loan or sale, controllers and CFOs, board members, risk managers, and agents who want a consistent summary for every client.

AI prompt pack: fill this template with ChatGPT or Claude

Paste the prompt below into ChatGPT or Claude together with your own documents (declarations pages, certificates, P&L, contracts). It is written to return results in this template's column order.

You are an insurance account manager. I will paste the declarations pages of my policies one at a time. For each, extract: line of coverage, carrier name, policy number, effective and expiration dates, each limit shown, deductible or self-insured retention, and total annual premium. Output one row per policy in the column order of my Schedule of Insurance spreadsheet. If a declarations page shows an endorsement that changes a limit, note it in the Notes column.

Check anything an AI tool returns against the source document before you rely on it. The prompt is a starting point, not a substitute for reading the policy.

Questions

Who asks for a schedule of insurance?

Lenders during a loan or refinance, landlords, boards and audit committees, buyers during due diligence, and franchisors. A clean one-page schedule answers most of their questions without pulling policies.

Where do I find the AM Best rating?

On the carrier's website, on ambest.com, or ask your broker. The rating matters to lenders, who often require A- or better from a carrier with a Financial Size Category of VII or higher.

Should premiums be on the schedule I give a lender?

Usually yes; lenders want to see the program is affordable and in force. For a board or a buyer you may prefer to omit premium; the Word version has a column you can delete.

What is the difference between this and a certificate of insurance?

A certificate is issued by the agent to a third party for one or a few policies. A schedule is your own internal summary of every policy you carry. Lenders may ask for both.
