Business Income & Extra Expense Coverage is a critical component of a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP) that protects your company’s cash flow after a covered property loss. If your business is forced to temporarily shut down or reduce operations due to events such as fire, theft, vandalism, or severe weather, this coverage helps replace lost income and pay essential expenses while repairs or rebuilding take place.
Business Income Coverage reimburses the revenue your business would have earned if the interruption had not occurred. This includes ongoing expenses such as employee payroll, rent or mortgage payments, utilities, loan obligations, and taxes helping you stay financially stable during downtime.
Extra Expense Coverage pays for necessary additional costs required to keep your business operating or to speed up recovery. These expenses may include temporary office space, equipment rentals, expedited shipping, or relocation costs. Together, these coverages reduce financial strain and help your business resume normal operations faster.
This coverage is essential for businesses that rely on physical locations or equipment, including:
Retail and wholesale businesses
Restaurants and hospitality operations
Office-based and professional service firms
Medical, dental, and healthcare practices
Manufacturing and light industrial businesses
If a temporary shutdown would impact your ability to pay expenses or serve customers, this coverage is a smart and necessary investment.
