COVID-19 Business interruption claims: Where are we now?
This session will explore the evolution of COVID-19 BI claims across international jurisdictions, highlighting the varying approaches taken by courts. Depending on the jurisdiction, there is enormous pressure on insurers to settle and pay claims, and pressure on adjusters to quantify them. Excessive delay in doing so may expose insurers to further claims for damages for late payment. The position and approach of the commercial policyholder and government and regulatory interventions to date will also be addressed.
