PROPERTY insurance

The basic principle of property insurance is to compensate for losses to the insured’s property so that it can be restored or replaced with the same or equivalent property if insured event has occurred.

What property can be insured with a property insurance policy:

• Buildings, premises, structures (warehouses, factories, office buildings, offices, housing), as well as all ancillary buildings and territory improvement and equipment elements;
• Raw materials, goods (finished products);
• Manufacturing and technological equipment and other fixed assets;
• Property in your buildings / premises / structures.

The standard named property insurance policy covers:

• Damage caused by fire and explosion;
• Accidental losses caused by utilities (water supply, sewerage, heating systems);
• Damage caused by natural disasters: storm, hail;
• Damage caused by third parties: theft, robbery and vandalism.

In addition to the standard insurance coverage, property insurance can be supplemented with the following extensions:

• Insurance of all risks – covers unforeseen and sudden, external or internal damage to property caused by external circumstances;
• Damage to property due to overvoltage;

Business interruption insurance

In the event of an insured event, the direct loss covered by the property insurance policy is only part of the total loss suffered by the company. Downtime losses while purchasing new equipment or renovating buildings may exceed the amount of loss on the property itself. The basic principle of business interruption insurance is to compensate for losses caused by downtime so that the customer does not feel any financial consequences after the accident and is in the same financial situation as prior the accident.

• Unearned income and fixed costs (difference between the gross profit if the insured risk would not have occurred and the actual gross profit);
• Business renewal expenses.
