There have been extensive discussions and debate over whether business interruption policies should respond to claims arising from Covid-19. Whether or not policies should respond depend upon the terms of the specific policies and potentially individual circumstances. In this webinar, experts from Mazars Insurance practice shared their views on the practical implications of these claims for insurers.
