S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 41 2021-2022 Regular Sessions I N A S S E M B L Y (PREFILED) January 6, 2021 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. CAHILL -- read once and referred to the Committee on Insurance AN ACT to direct the department of financial services to study and report upon the adequacy and affordability of business interruption insurance coverage for pandemics, viruses and other public health emergencies; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The legislature hereby finds that significant economic liabilities surrounding quarantines and shutdowns associated with the COVID-19 outbreak have sparked debate as to the exact terms, overall costs and general adequacy of business interruption insurance policies related to coverage for pandemics, viruses and other infectious diseases. The tremendous financial impact upon the business community due to the ongoing public health crisis highlights the need to examine the current status and sufficiency of business interruption insurance coverage related to this health epidemic and potentially other wide- spread events in the future. § 2. The superintendent of financial services shall review and report on the adequacy, reasonableness and affordability of business inter- ruption insurance coverage as it relates to losses resulting from pandemics, viruses and other infectious diseases. Such report shall include but not be limited to: (a) the present state of the marketplace regarding pandemic-related insurance coverage for business interruption policies; (b) prevailing reasons for the denial of insurance coverage for busi- ness interruption policies related to pandemics, viruses, infectious diseases and other common exclusions; EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
