FAQ About Business Interruption Insurance

What is business interruption insurance?

Business interruption insurance helps protect businesses from the financial costs of operational slowdowns and stops that are caused by covered disasters.

What sorts of disasters does business income insurance protect against?

Business income insurance protects businesses from the same sorts of disasters as commercial property policies cover. Exact coverages can vary, but most business interruption policies offer coverage for perils like fire, windstorms, and theft.

What types of businesses is business income insurance for?

Any business that would struggle to remain financially viable if there was a temporary decrease in revenue should consider getting business income insurance.

Do businesses that have cash reserves need a business interruption policy?

Businesses that have significant savings may want to self-insure against potential decreases in revenue instead of buying a business interruption policy. There is a cost associated with self-insuring, though. By purchasing a business interruption policy, which is usually quite affordable, a business can free up the funds that would otherwise have to be saved.
