Insurer Hiscox counts cost of virus claims, 'brand damage' after court case
British insurer Hiscox reported a big loss for 2020 after a jump in claims from businesses disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and also faces "brand damage" from a legal dispute over policy wordings for pandemic-linked claims. Hiscox shares plunged 13% to the bottom of the UK mid-cap index by 0923 GMT. The company lost a high-profile court case in January over the policy wordings and has reserved $475 million for pandemic-linked claims.
