Directors & Officers Insurance (D & O)
Directors and
Officers Liability Insurance provides financial
protection for the directors and officers of your
company in the event they are sued in conjunction with
the performance of their duties as they relate to the
company. Think of Directors and Officers Insurance as a
management Errors and Omissions policy.
Directors & Officers Liability Insurance can usually
include Employment Practices Liability and sometimes
Fiduciary Liability. The former involves harassment and
discrimination suits, and is where the majority of your
exposure will be.
Directors and Officers Insurance is often confused with
Errors & Omissions Liability. The two are not
synonymous; Errors & Omissions is concerned with
performance failures and negligence with respect to your
products and services, not the performance and duties of
management. Generally it is a good idea to carry both
Directors and Officers Liability Insurance and Errors
and Omissions Liability Insurance.
D&O Insurance can be purchased for both for-profit and
non-profit companies such as charities and research
foundations.
