A material circumstance are circumstances which may influence an insurer's decision to cover a risk and/or the terms that are applied. If your insurer ever feels that you have failed to make a fair presentation of the risk they have the right to take remedial action (this could influence the result of a claim) and may include voiding the policy or altering the terms of the cover provided.
