A completed operations liability loss exposure differs from a products liability loss exposure in that the completed operations exposure

• A. Is Broader
• B. Arises out of the entity's completed work, including defective parts or materials furnished with the work
• C. Only Applies to Manufacturers
• D. Is the Same as Products Liability

Answer: (B)

Completed operations exposure covers liability for damage that arises after the insured’s work has been completed, including defects in the work or in parts or materials that were furnished as part of that completed project. If faulty components or materials installed during a job later cause damage, that liability falls under completed operations. This distinguishes it from products liability, which deals with defects in a product itself that’s sold or distributed, regardless of how the product was used in a particular project. So the correct choice captures the idea that completed operations includes liability arising from the finished work and the defective parts or materials furnished with it.
