Paul White (Partner-Los Angeles) and Siobhán Breen (Associate-New York) collaborated on "The Impact of the Global COVID-19 Pandemic on the Insurance Industry," which appeared in the April 2020 edition of DRI's For the Defense. The authors note that repercussions of COVID-19 on the insurance industry are significant as the financial and liability exposures arising from a global crisis of this magnitude prompt an analysis of myriad complex insurance risks under a variety of products, extending coverage for first-party property and business interruption benefits, event cancellations, and liability claims. Paul and Siobhán explore the emergence of COVID-19, its influence on the health and economies of the world, and the resulting effect on insurance risks.
