Risk Management

Net income loss exposures

n When any of its property gets lost, damaged or destroyed, a
     business may suffer a reduction in its net income (i.e. revenues
     less expenses) until the property is restored back to its former
     condition. This happens primarily because the business looses
     use of that property in whole or in part. In many instances the
     net income loss may far exceed the property loss and in view
     of many variables getting involved, ascertaining the loss
     potential becomes difficult. Let us now look at major net
     income exposures and their potentials.

Reduction in revenues

n Loss of rent,
n Interruption in operations,
n Contingent business interruption,
n Lost profits on finished goods,
n Reduction in receivables.
n Increase in expenses.

Loss of rent

n Depending the terms of the lease agreement a tenant may not
     be responsible for payment of rent during the period the
     property is untenantable as a result of an accidental damage
     or destruction of a property.
