Review Your Insurance
Make sure you have sufficient coverage to pay for the indirect costs of a disaster—the disruption to your business—as well as the cost of repair or rebuilding. Most policies do not cover flood or earthquake damage and you may need to buy separate insurance for these perils. Be sure you understand your policy coinsurance requirements and deductibles.
For a business, the costs of a disaster can extend beyond the physical damage to the premises, stock, equipment, furniture and other business property. There is the potential loss of income while the premises is unfit for use. Your disaster recovery should include a detailed review of your insurance policies to ensure there are no gaps in coverage.
