Coronavirus and insurance: Whats covered?

The global economy continues feeling the effect of the Coronavirus, with the health industry gearing for greater strain. Insurance companies worldwide are hesitant to cover the costs to businesses and individuals, even with more governments requests for them to do so.

We look at the reasons for the hesitation and the current responses insurance companies are taking to cushion the economic impact to themselves and those insured.

Also; the World Health Organisation has called on countries witnessing Coronavirus cases to exercise social distancing. This call for citizens to limit their movements coupled with venue shutdowns has interrupted the income streams for several businesses.

We explore the question of how do you keep business running during disruption of services.

From our studios in Nairobi, Maya Hayakawa presents this edition of 大象传媒 Money Daily.
