2:30 PM — 4:30 PM: Advanced Intensive: Bridging the Gap: A Collaborative Working Group on Contingent Business Interruption Issues
Laurie Kamaiko, Saul Ewing LLP
We meet for another installment of the BI Working Group, this time anchored on Contingent Business Interruption Claims. We will tackle questions like: Does this traditional property insurance coverage language for CBI fit in cyber claims? Is CBI intended to control aggregation risk, and if so, is it working? What unique challenges do we face in applying CBI provisions to BI losses in the retail, professional services, manufacturing, and logistics industries? How is A.I. beginning to impact CBI claims, and what’s next?
