COVID-19 is having a significant impact on the insurance industry, especially insurance carriers who are facing claims for business interruption or shutdowns that may or may not be covered under the insured’s policy. Carriers are also dealing with public policy pressure to provide coverage even though a policy may not include specific coverage – or not enough coverage. In addition, policyholders are looking to buy business interruption coverage for the future, but the cost is a concern. How can carriers appropriately cover future risks without expensive rates that turn policyholders away?

Join this complimentary webcast to learn how leaders across the insurance industry are adjusting their business models to excel in the new post-pandemic environment. You will:

  • Hear analysis and predictions on how COVID-19 will impact business interruption coverage and claims for years to come
  • And more…
