Why are payouts so slow?

Insurance payouts for riot damage can be slow due to the sheer volume of claims and the complexity of assessing widespread damage. Insurers need to verify each claim, which takes time, especially when many businesses are affected simultaneously. This delay exacerbates financial strain for damaged businesses like Carrefour, impacting their recovery.
