Market conduct regulator sides with businesses in battle against short-term insurers

In a victory for hundreds of small businesses facing ruin because of Covid-19 and the resulting lockdown, SA's financial services regulator has come out strongly against insurers refusing to pay out on claims caused by losses resulting from the pandemic.

The Financial Sector Conduct Authority says it will take action against short-term insurers which continue to reject claims under business interruption policies on the ground that losses were caused by the national lockdown and not the infectious or contagious notifiable disease covered by the policies.
