What might be an implication of underinsurance?

Insufficient coverage for claims exceeding policy limits is a significant implication of underinsurance. When an individual or entity is underinsured, it means that their insurance coverage is not adequate to cover the full extent of potential losses or damages. This can lead to situations where, in the event of a claim, the amount covered by the policy is less than what is required to pay for the damages. Therefore, the insured may face substantial out-of-pocket expenses, as they will not receive enough financial support from their insurance provider to fully cover the loss or damage incurred. This situation can have serious financial consequences and may leave the policyholder unprotected in scenarios of significant loss.
