Shootings, stabbings, and other acts of violence are on the rise, and often have a costly negative impact on business near the attack. Skyline Partners was asked by Aegis London to help develop a parametric product to provide insured businesses in US urban areas with payments to compensate for business interruption, loss of footfall, lost revenue, and costs such as increased security and marketing following an nearby incidence of violence.
