How it comes up, in Chapter 4
A loss payee is the person the insurer must pay when it meets a claim. The Bank is loss payee on the buildings and plant sections of the policy with Aldgate, the Company's insurer. Business interruption cover is left out, so that money still goes to the Company. If money for damage to the factory or machines reaches the Company instead, the Company holds it on trust for the Bank and may not use it as its own.
