Update: ABI Comment on business insurance & COVID-19

Following the Prime Minister and Chancellor's comments on insurance during the Government press conference earlier this evening, the ABI has issued this further comment; 

"The Chancellor's statement today is consistent with our statement this morning where we said in the event businesses have the right cover, this type of notification could help make a claim.

But, as the Chancellor acknowledged, the vast majority won’t have purchased extended cover and this remains unchanged."
