Details

For anyone who already works within the business interruption insurance industry or any new starter to the world of insurance, the book has shed a new ray of light on an otherwise difficult subject, successfully navigating the reader’s way around the complexities of the topic.

The book is not just filled with dry business interruption insurance explanations and terminology; it is contextualised within a legal environment by quoting and applying useful and topical case law.

The purpose of this second edition has remained to provide a concise guide to business interruption insurance law and especially to tackle practical claims issues arising from the widely followed standard terms of the UK Gross Profit Form.
