National context — Freight Broker insurance overview
Freight broker insurance is a completely different product set from driver/carrier insurance. Brokers don't operate trucks — they connect shippers with carriers, taking a percentage. The coverage stack reflects that: a federally-required FMCSA $75,000 BMC-84 surety bond (or BMC-85 trust fund), General Liability for office operations, Contingent Cargo + Contingent Auto for when a carrier's coverage falls short, Errors & Omissions for booking mistakes, and increasingly Cyber Liability for the rising tide of broker-carrier fraud schemes.
Typical total annual cost: $1,500-$5,000 in insurance premium plus $300-$1,000 for the BMC-84 bond (Insureon, TIA 2024). The bond is the gating requirement — FMCSA won't issue or renew your MC# without it. Every figure on this page cites a named external publication.
