Insured amount business interruption insurance
The sum insured under business interruption insurance is your fixed costs plus net profit. This makes up your company's gross profit. Of course, you don't know in advance how high your gross profit will be. Therefore, every year you report the gross profit of the previous year to the insurer. To prevent under- and overinsurance, most insurers have included an increase/decrease clause. This means that the insured amount will be increased by (usually) a maximum of 30% if, after a claim, it appears that the insured amount is too low. After this a premium supplement takes place. If after a claim the insured amount turns out to be too high, a premium refund will be given.
