Why take out multi-risk insurance?
Our multi-risk insurance protects you against damage caused to your property as a result of fire, falling objects such as trees or masts, collision, malicious damage, water and fuel oil, glass breakage, storms and natural disasters.
As a retailer you can discover 9 types of additional cover tailored to the needs your business.

If you sustain loss or damage, the additional costs incurred to ensure business continuity, for example for renting an emergency generator, are covered by this insurance. - Loss of business due to roadworks

If the building is included in your KBC Business Property Insurance, this insurance covers damage to the building caused by a crash or collision, even if the collision was caused by you or your staff. - Sun tents, awnings and canvases
This insurance covers damage caused by storms and related risks to sun tents, awnings or canvases attached to the buildings. - Events

Tents and marquees used during these events, including their contents, are also covered against storms and related risks. - Fluctuating quantity of merchandise
