Directors & officers insurance provides financial protection for the directors & officers of a company if they are sued in relation to the performance of their duties in the company. Any director or officer can be sued by shareholders, employees or other third parties who believe they have failed to exercise due care in the running of their business.
Claims can be made for all manner of breaches of duty including:
• Corporate manslaughter
• Pollution
• Data protection
• Health and safety
• Disability discrimination
• Insolvency
Increased regulation and greater occurrence of litigation against individuals means it is becoming more important for senior decision makers to protect themselves as their personal assets can be placed at risk.
We have access to the market leading insurers in this field and can therefore arrange competitive rates for your policy.
