What is Industrial All Risk (IAR) Policy?
Industrial operations face potential risks such as material damage, machinery breakdowns, and business interruptions that can result in substantial financial losses. The Industrial All Risk (IAR) Policy serves as a comprehensive solution to safeguard businesses from these implications, offering broader coverage compared to a Standard Fire and Perils policy.
Protection of assets
Safeguards expensive machinery, equipment, and infrastructure from unforeseen events, reducing financial losses.
Business Continuity
Assists in the continuity of operations by covering repair, replacement, and restoration costs in case of damage or loss.
Legal and liability protection
Provides coverage for liabilities arising from property damage or bodily injury to third parties on the insured premises.
Risk management
Shifts certain risks to the insurance provider, allowing businesses to focus on core operations without constant financial concerns.
Regulatory compliance and contracts
Ensures compliance with contractual or regulatory insurance requirements, safeguarding against potential penalties or legal issues.
Here are the common inclusions of an IAR policy:
Material damage coverage
Buildings, machinery, fixtures, inventory, etc., caused by various perils such as fire, explosion, natural disasters, accidental damage, etc.
Business interruption coverage
Compensation for financial losses due to interruptions in business operations caused by insured perils.
Machinery breakdown coverage

Rider covers
