Consequential Loss

Definition

  • The financial damages an entity takes from the loss of a property's use. For example, if a business's property is damaged in a fire and the company cannot continue to operate until the property is repaired or replaced, the lost business would be considered a consequential loss and these losses would need to be covered by a business interruption insurance policy in order for the insured to receive payment.
