D&O Liability

Directors & Officers (D&O) liability insurance protects the directors and officers, as well as senior managers against claims arising from their actions and decisions in their official capacities. This includes damages awarded in civil courts and the potentially substantial defence costs if a director or officer faces criminal or regulatory charges.

  • Worldwide coverage
  • Strong advancement of "defence costs" language
