Risks like Storm, Fire, Flood or man-made disasters like Strike, Riots, and Malicious Damage are insured by the ‘Fire Standard & Special Perils’ Plan. But as a result of such disasters, your company may have to cease its usual commercial activities, resulting in a decrease in your revenue, or you may be required to invest certain extra expenditures in order to continue the regular function of your business. Loss of Profit Insurance covers these losses that you suffer as a result of fire damage resulting in suspension of operations or increased expenses due to Fire loss.

Health insurance plans often come with terms that sound like they belong in a secret financial club. One such term is “co-pay.” You might have seen it in your policy document and quietly ignored it, hoping it won’t matter until you actually need to claim.
