German term or phrase: Erschwerung wirtschaftlichen Fortkommens
There must be a standard English insurance term for this! Unfortunately, my Dictionary of Insurance Terms covers only E>G.Anyone out there who has the other volume?
I have for now used "loss of future ecomomic opportunities". Any suggestions? MTIA
