Epidemic Risk Insurance with Miller's Richard Coyle
Show Notes

Richard Coyle from Miller joins Dan to talk about Epidemic Risk Insurance Coverage. 

Insurers are addressing a significant coverage gap that traditional insurance
has not been able to solve: non-damage business interruption for loss of gross
profit as a result of an epidemic. Most standard property damage policies
require a business interruption to be from physical damage and also typically
exclude communicable diseases. This coverage may be extended to include
communicable diseases by endorsement, but only limited capacity is available
and with restrictive terms.

In order to close this gap, Insurers have developed expertise in epidemiology,
statistics, risk modeling, finance and claims management as well as a range
of innovative tailor-made risk transfer solutions for many different industry
types exposed to epidemic risks. This policy can also provide optional access
to specialized epidemic risk management experts to assist in current and future
outbreak mitigation and preparation.
