Not really fancy. Normal. I used to sell the stuff and it is a cost of doing business. Actually, one is rather foolish to operate a business without it.
It depends on the business and risk exposure (like the possibility of employees having guns).

I've had clients who buy the insurance. In some industries, the premiums are substantial. And sometimes to even get manageable premiums a business would need to accept a very high self-insured retention or very large deductible.

So even with insurance, a business can have a substantial financial liability exposure.
