In today’s rapidly evolving business environment, protecting your enterprise is more crucial than ever. To support SMEs in Malaysia, Liberty General Insurance (Liberty) has launched SME BI 365, a comprehensive business interruption insurance product designed to ensure continuity and resilience in times of crisis.
SME BI 365 complements Liberty’s De-tariffed Fire insurance policies, such as Liberty Premier Fire & Con Loss, Fire 365, and Fire Enhanced, providing SMEs with an additional layer of protection against income loss resulting from insured events like fires, floods, or natural disasters.
Addressing SME Vulnerabilities
The adage “fail to plan, plan to fail” is particularly true for SMEs, which often operate with lean structures and are highly susceptible to major disruptions. According to a joint report by the World Bank and Bank Negara Malaysia, 75% of small businesses identified supply chain bottlenecks as a primary cause of delays in returning to operations, emphasizing the importance of insurance payouts for recovery efforts.
Liberty’s SME BI 365 is crafted to address these challenges, offering a straightforward and easily accessible insurance solution. This product simplifies the coverage process, enabling SME owners to focus on growing their businesses while safeguarding against income losses.

Empowering SMEs with Confidence

By simplifying the traditionally complex process of business interruption insurance, SME BI 365 enables business owners to provide only essential information, ensuring accessible and efficient protection.
