Why Business Interruption Insurance
is the most underinsured commercial cover in Australia

Property insurance covers the building and equipment. But it doesn't pay wages, rent, loan repayments or insurance premiums while your premises are being rebuilt — sometimes for 18–24 months. That's what BI insurance does.

40%
Never reopen
Of small businesses that suffer a major loss — fire, flood or storm — 40% never reopen their doors at all.

29%
Still trading at 2 years
Of those that do reopen, fewer than 1 in 3 are still operating two years later. The financial damage compounds.

18–24
Months to rebuild
The average commercial rebuild takes 18–24 months from loss to reopening. Most BI policies are set to 12 months.

A note for Insurance Brokers — Professional Negligence Risk
