在新西兰经商，商业生意可能是业主最重要的财产之一，而天灾人祸的发生-火灾，盗窃，自然灾害，法律诉讼等，都会给业主带来难以估算的损失。所以，基本上所有的新西兰商业业主，都会为自己的生意准备一套周全的保险保障。当发生了任何损害了业主的商业利益的事情时，保险公司会赔偿损失并帮助业主恢复生意的正常运行。

(2)Business Interruption Insurance
covers for Loss of Income, extra costs reasonably incurred to maintain your business and any accountant or solicitors fees for quantification of a claim for up to 12 months, following a claim on your material damage policy.
