Business interruption claims against insurers

Many businesses are grappling with claims against insurers arising out of Coronavirus closures.

Insurers are refusing to pay out for business losses, claiming that the policies were never designed to cover a pandemic situation, even if on the face of it their policy wording does cover such situations.

Cynics might say that insurers are hoping for a bail out from the government, or that businesses will not have the wherewithal to bring costly claims,
