Insurance in a Time of Conflict: The Truth About War Risk Coverage

  In the wake of the recent confrontation between India and Pakistan through Operation Sindoor, a question in the minds of those with an insurance policy was if their policy will cover war-related damages. Our clients were no exception; we got queries on insurance coverage for wars during this period.

      A OG (Act of God) Perils Extension in Commercial General Liability (CGL) policies refers to the inclusion of natural and unpredictable events under the coverage of the policy. AOG perils are events beyond human control, often caused by natural forces, and their inclusion can significantly broaden the scope of a standard CGL policy. These perils are not covered automatically in a CGL but have to be purchased separately as an add-on. Let us look at this aspect of CGL policies in more detail. Indian firms looking to buy a CGL policy should ideally opt for an AOG perils extension because the country is geographically prone to various natural disasters such as earthquakes, cyclones, and floods. Including AOG perils in a CGL policy will help businesses in disaster -prone areas to protect against liabilities arising from damage or injury caused during such events. AOG Perils covered in a CGL policy Earthquake Floods (including inundation, cloudburst, etc.)...
