What is Business Interruption Insurance?

If your business is damaged by something like a fire, storm or another insured event, you may not be able to trade as normal.

Business Interruption Insurance can help cover the income you lose and some of the ongoing costs you still need to pay while your business gets back up and running.

It helps protect your cash flow.

Even if your business is temporarily closed, expenses such as rent, wages and other business costs may still continue.

What It Can Help With

What can Business Interruption Insurance cover?

The exact cover depends on your policy, but it may help with some of the following costs and losses.
