Property Insurance - Additional Information


1. Supplementary Coverage

Business Interruption
You may opt for Business Interuption coverage in addition to your comprehensive Commercial Property All Risks Insurance and at an equitable extra premium. Business Interruption covers loss of gross profit due to reduction in turnover and increase in cost of working, resulting from business interruption caused by accidental damage to property insured. Insurable business interruption losses are the following:

  • Losses incurred as a result of decrease in net sales
  • Fixed costs and expenses incurring during the business interruption period such as bank interests, employee's salaries, rent, electricity
  • Costs and expenses of hiring external auditors
For example, if a shoe factory had a fire, its operations would be interrupted, resulting in extra costs and possibly a loss of profit. Also, the business may continue to incur fixed costs, such as salaries, even though the business cannot operate until the factory is repaired.
