Web chat touches on small-business insurance

Loretta Worters, vice president of communications with the institute, will speak during an hourlong U.S. Small Business Administration Web chat beginning at noon.

On the topic of “Insuring Your Home & Business,” Worters will offer tips on insurance preparedness for small-business owners and homeowners, focus on strategic issues confronting the industry and answer audience questions. Worters also will cover business interruption insurance, which helps pay a business’ operating costs in a post-disaster shutdown.
