The Basics
What is business interruption insurance?
Business interruption insurance, sometimes called business income insurance, is designed to help replace lost income and assist with certain ongoing operating expenses when a business is unable to operate due to a covered loss.
This coverage is often included within a Business Owner's Policy (BOP) or may be available as part of a commercial property insurance package. The goal is to help businesses recover financially while working to restore normal operations.
Without this protection, many businesses may face significant financial strain while attempting to recover from unexpected disruptions.
Coverage
What does business interruption insurance cover?
If a covered event temporarily disrupts your operations, business interruption insurance can help cover essential expenses and lost income while your business recovers.
Rent, Mortgage, or Lease
Ongoing payment obligations for your business premises during the interruption.
Loan Payments
Required business loan payments that continue during the interruption period.
Taxes
Covered tax obligations that continue while your business is unable to operate.
Employee Payroll
Wages and salaries needed to retain your employees during recovery.
Temporary Relocation
Expenses associated with moving to a temporary location after a covered loss.
Extra Operating Expenses
Additional costs incurred to keep your business running or resume operations more quickly.
Employee Training Costs
Expenses related to training staff on replacement equipment or systems following a covered loss.
Business interruption insurance helps reduce the financial impact of unexpected disruptions, allowing your business to recover and resume operations with greater confidence.
Why It Matters
Why business interruption insurance matters
Property damage is often only part of the financial impact following a disaster. Many businesses continue facing expenses even when they cannot generate revenue.
Business interruption insurance helps provide a financial cushion during the recovery process, allowing business owners to focus on restoring operations, serving customers, and protecting long-term business stability.
For many organizations, this coverage can play an important role in business continuity planning.

Time for a Review
Already have business insurance? Your coverage may need a review
As businesses grow, expand, relocate, or adjust operations, insurance needs can change significantly.
If it has been several years since your policy was reviewed, your current coverage may no longer reflect your revenue, operating expenses, or recovery needs. Our team can help review your existing insurance program and identify opportunities to strengthen your protection.
Regular coverage reviews can help ensure your business is prepared for unexpected interruptions.
Business interruption insurance helps replace lost income and may help cover certain ongoing expenses when a business cannot operate due to a covered loss.
Coverage may include lost income, operating expenses, payroll, relocation costs, and certain extra expenses incurred during a covered interruption.
After a covered loss causes a temporary business shutdown or reduction in operations, eligible expenses and income losses may be reimbursed according to policy terms and conditions.
Many Business Owner's Policies include business interruption coverage, although coverage details vary by insurer and policy.
Coverage generally applies when a covered property loss, such as fire or certain storm damage, causes business operations to be interrupted.
Coverage depends on policy language, endorsements, and the circumstances surrounding the loss. Businesses should review their policy details carefully.
Coverage periods vary by policy and are generally tied to the time required to repair, rebuild, or restore operations following a covered loss.
Some policies may offer limited coverage under specific circumstances, while others may require additional endorsements.
Coverage needs depend on your revenue, operating expenses, payroll obligations, and how long it could take your business to recover from a major loss.
Many small businesses rely on consistent cash flow to operate. Business interruption insurance may help provide financial stability during unexpected disruptions.
