Business interruption insurance can help protect your company against income loss in the event of a covered incident that forces you to suspend business operations. This type of insurance can also assist with rent or lease payments, relocation costs, employee wages, taxes, and loan payments until your business can reopen.
Business interruption insurance does not usually cover damages or losses from flooding, earthquakes, mudslides, and other natural disasters. You can, however, purchase additional coverage to help protect against these risks.
