Building owner of a 2-4 storey mixed-use property — retail-on-ground + offices/apartments above.
Multi-tenant landlord MDBI covers the building structure + common areas. Tenants insure their own contents. Loss-of-Rent BI (12-24 months) is the dominant BI form. Older buildings often carry seismic-strengthening + heritage compliance pressure.
FCIB panel for this scenario
For this operator profile, FCIB typically places business through: NZI , QBE , Zurich New Zealand .
What matters in the wording
For this scenario, the fact keys to compare across the ingested wordings are:
sum_insured_basis — Sum insured basis
natural_disaster_cover — Natural disaster cover
indemnity_period — BI indemnity period
settlement_basis — Settlement basis
Watch out for
Reinstatement value MUST include current Building Code + seismic-strengthening requirements — heritage / pre-2011 buildings often massively under-insured.
Loss-of-rent BI calculation needs full annual rent-roll evidence — tenancy gaps create claim disputes.
EQ-zone classification (TC1/TC2/TC3) drives NZ EQ excess — Christchurch / Wellington landlords pay materially more than Auckland.
