    I had an insured who bought cancellation insurance for a rodeo. The event had poor attendance due to a Kenny Chesney concert scheduled at the same time. Our insured wanted to collect. I wonder if this would have covered him…

    That peril is a standard exclusion on a Lloyd’s (and I believe other carriers’) policy. The exclusionary text reads (on Lloyd’s NMA 2743):

    7.22.1. withdrawal, insufficienty or lack of finance howsoever caused,

    7.22.2 the financial failure of any venture,

    7.22.3 lack of or inadequate receipts, sales or profits of any venture,

    7.22.4 variations in the rate of exchange, rate of interest or stability of any currency,

    7.22.5 financial default, insolvency or failure to pay of any person, corporation or entity,

    all (7.22.1 to 7.22.5) whether a party to this Insurance or otherwise.

    I believe 7.22.3 contains the exclusionary wording for your particular scenario.

    Every policy has a standard Kenny Chesney exclusion.
