FAQs
Directors and officers (D&O) liability insurance protects the personal assets of directors and officers from significant financial loss due to legal actions brought against them in their roles. It also provides protection for the organization itself, whether it’s named as a defendant, targeted in a claim, or required to indemnify a director or officer for a covered wrongful act. This coverage is essential for mitigating risks and helping leadership focus on driving the organization forward.
Whether you are a financial advisor, investment fund, commercial banking institution, investment bank, insurance company, or non-depository institution (such as a leasing company, title agency, collection agency, REIT, mortgage broker, or finance company), structuring the right D&O insurance program offers benefits:
- Helps protect your company’s balance sheet from the financial impact of claims
- Safeguards individual directors’ and officers’ personal assets against legal actions
- Helps attract and retain talented leadership by providing peace of mind
- Allows you to focus on your business without the distraction of potential liabilities
While D&O insurance provides essential protection, it’s important to understand common exclusions, which may include:
- Adjudicated fraud or illegal personal profiting
- Professional liability
- ERISA matters (with exceptions)
- Claims by insureds against other insureds (with exceptions)
- Pollution and environmental matters
- Contract exclusions
- Bodily injury/property damage (except personal injury in employment matters)
- Claims by major shareholders
- Pending or prior litigation
