Definisi
A policy endorsement or separate policy that lists specific high-value items — art, jewelry, watches, wine, collectibles — individually, each with its own coverage amount.
A standard homeowners policy typically covers personal property only up to a blanket sublimit, and that sublimit is often far too low for a single piece of fine jewelry, let alone a collection. Scheduling an item means it is individually described, appraised, and insured for a specific amount — often with broader protections such as coverage for mysterious disappearance, not just theft or fire.
Consider a hypothetical collector who owns a substantial wine cellar and several works by recognized artists. A blanket policy might pay only a fraction of the actual loss. A scheduled valuables policy would list each artwork with a recent appraisal and cover the stated amount, often on an agreed value basis, meaning no depreciation argument at claim time.
One common confusion is treating appraisals as a one-time task. For appreciating assets like art, jewelry, or rare watches, coverage amounts can become dangerously stale within a few years. Insurers and advisors generally suggest periodic reappraisals — especially after market shifts in a particular category. Another overlooked issue is coverage during transit or while items are on loan to a museum; standard scheduled policies may or may not extend to those situations. A licensed insurance professional should review the specific terms for each item and situation.
