The correct answer is B. Provide coverage as if each named insured had a separate policy . A cross liability clause, sometimes connected with severability of interests, is important when more than one insured is covered under the same liability policy. Its purpose is to allow the policy to respond as though each insured were separately insured, especially where one insured is legally liable to another insured. Without this provision, a claim by one insured against another might be blocked because both parties are insured under the same policy. The clause does not create a separate limit for every insured, and it does not multiply or compound the policy limits. The same overall policy limits still apply. It also does not prevent one insured from suing another; in fact, it helps preserve coverage where such cross-claims occur. This is particularly important in commercial arrangements involving multiple named insureds, additional insureds, contractors, owners, landlords, tenants, and project participants. The broker must understand this clause because clients often assume all insured parties have independent protection, but coverage still depends on the wording and limits.
