Why Under Armour Employees Should Consider Renter's Insurance: Managing Your Personal Belongings and Financial Future

Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for Under Armour Under Armour's healthcare benefits are managed through a partnership with various national insurers that provide coverage options for their employees. While specific healthcare providers may vary based on the individual plans and geographic location, major insurers involved in employer-sponsored plans, such as Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, and Anthem, are known to offer various health plans that Under Armour employees can choose from. Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026 In 2026, Under Armour employees may face significant healthcare cost increases as insurance premiums through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace are projected to surge. With several states expecting hikes of over 60%, the termination of enhanced federal subsidies could leave many employees with out-of-pocket premium costs soaring by more than 75%. Companies, including Under Armour, are also likely to adjust their health benefit structures, potentially shifting a greater share of expenses to employees amid rising medical costs. Employees are encouraged to stay informed and strategically evaluate their health plan options, as proactive planning can mitigate the impact of these escalating costs., 'sources': [], 'images': [] Click here to learn more

Renters sometimes overlook the need for insurance based on the belief that they may not have a significant amount of personal possessions, or because the property is already insured by the owner.

Under Armour employees must note how while it is true that a rental property is insured by the owner, the destruction or loss of your personal belongings is not. But, that’s not the only risk renters need to worry about.

The typical renter’s insurance policy can cover your possessions against losses arising from fire, smoke, lightning, theft, vandalism, explosion, wind storm and water damage (excluding floods).

If you are employed at Under Armour, even if you don’t believe that the value of your personal possessions warrants insurance protection (though you may think differently after an inventory of their value), renter’s insurance covers other potential risks that can adversely impact your finances.

Under Armour employees must note that renter’s insurance is designed to cover damages and costs in the event that visitors are injured in your apartment or elsewhere by you, your pet, or a family member living with you. This includes any legal defense expenses if you are taken to court.

A renter’s policy may also cover additional living expenses should you be unable to live in your apartment due to a covered peril, such as fire, though the policy may set limits on how much you will be reimbursed.

Under Armour employees should make sure to know whether a policy insures for actual cash value (pays to replace your possessions after reducing for depreciation) or for replacement cost (which pays the actual cost of replacing items, up to policy limits). In most cases, replacement cost coverage is the smarter option.

If you are employed at Under Armour and have any possessions of particularly high value such as art or jewelry, you may want to add a floater to the standard renter’s insurance policy.
