Speedier resumption of operations after a damage eventExtra expense insurance

When dealing with the fallout of property damage, companies need to place their focus not only on repairing the damage but also, and above all, on quickly restoring operability. For example, after fire damage, a company may temporarily switch to rented replacement space and have parts of their production manufactured externally in order to maintain their ability to meet delivery obligations. This is vital given than any additional downtime causes economic losses, jeopardizes customer relationships, and may lead to loss in market share.

Rapid resumption of business operations

The extra expense insurance policy covers the additional expenses that are necessary to resume business operations more quickly after insured property damage or to minimize restrictions – such as those arising from replacement rooms, express procurement or third-party production. These properties turn it into a strategic building block within a comprehensive property concept for industry and commerce.

What are insured extra expenses?

Events insured under this policy are extraordinary costs that go beyond normal operating expenses and are incurred exclusively to shorten the interruption. This can include, for example, expenses for replacement rooms, rented machinery, temporary production solutions or accelerated procurement measures.

Unlike loss of revenue insurance, which replaces lost profits and ongoing fixed costs, extra expense insurance finances active measures intended to accelerate the resumption of operations. The objective is to minimize downtimes and limit consequential economic damage.

Economic benefit for industry and mid-sized companies

Quick resumption of production can be crucial, especially in manufacturing companies dealing with tight supply chains or long-term customer contracts. Contractual penalties, damage to the company’s image or the permanent migration of customers can be reduced by being able to respond quickly.

Extra expense insurance creates additional financial room to maneuver for these companies. It allows businesses to implement pragmatic solutions without sacrificing a faster resumption solely for reasons of cost.
