Business Interruption Insurance
Business interruption insurance helps businesses stay afloat when unexpected disasters, like a fire or a flood, disrupt their operations. This income loss may be due to disaster-related closure or rebuilding expenses. Knightsbridge can examine what risks your business is exposed to and help decide exactly what coverage is needed. Business interruption insurance is a cost-effective strategy that helps with everyday costs and protects profit margins, ensuring your business can get back on its feet after disaster strikes.
Financial Coverage Scope
The insurance offers comprehensive financial protection by covering critical financial metrics such as gross earnings, gross profits, and monthly earnings. This ensures businesses can meet their financial obligations even when normal revenue streams are unexpectedly interrupted.
Indemnity Period
With a flexible coverage period ranging from 3 to 24 months, businesses can select an indemnity timeframe that aligns with their potential recovery needs. This adaptability recognises the complex nature of business restoration after significant disruptions.
Sales and Operational Loss Protection
The policy addresses revenue challenges by covering lost sales and supporting essential operational expenses during the interruption. This approach helps businesses maintain their economic momentum and market presence during challenging periods.
Relocation Support
Business Interruption Insurance covers relocation costs and expenses associated with temporary operational arrangements. This feature enables businesses to quickly establish alternative working environments and continue serving customers with minimal disruption.

What specific events are typically covered under business interruption insurance?
Business interruption insurance usually covers events like natural disasters (fires, floods, hurricanes), significant property damage, forced closures by civil authorities, and other unexpected incidents that prevent normal business operations.
How is the insurance payout calculated?
Payouts are typically calculated based on historical financial records, considering average monthly revenues, fixed costs, and projected profits. The calculation takes into account the actual financial impact during the interruption period and is subject to the chosen indemnity period.

How long does it take to receive insurance benefits after filing a claim?
Claim processing times vary depending on the insurance provider and the complexity of the interruption. Typically, a thorough claim can be processed within 30-60 days, provided all necessary documentation is submitted promptly and accurately.
