Business Overheads Cover
Business Overheads Cover removes some of the operational and financial strain of covering business expenses so you can focus on your recovery. The amount payable for the first three months of any claim will be the sum insured, irrespective of the actual costs to the business.
The amount payable after the three months will be the lesser of the sum insured or their share of eligible business overheads.
