<<I doubt very much that this type of failure is insurable as it was not caused by anything external to the company. The moral hazard issue would make underwriting this type of loss too difficult.>> Have to disagree with you here -- products liability insurance covers companies against their own mistakes all the time. AOL was covered when it didn't have the capacity to handle all its customers and they sued for their membership fees. The present outage is exactly the type of accident that is covered by liability insurance. It would almost amount to "malpractice" if CF had no coverage for this, something which the Checkfree's management has shown it is NOT in the habit of doing.
