[I046]

indirect loss

A type of loss that does not result from direct damage of a covered cause of loss or peril but is, instead, a consequence of the direct damage loss. To illustrate, if a restaurant burns to the ground from a fire, that is the direct loss; however, the income lost because the restaurant could not operate is the indirect loss.
