Directors & Officers Insurance

Directors & Officers (D&O) Liability Insurance provides protection for both personal and corporate assets where claims are made against an individual while serving on a board of directors and/or as an officer.  D&O can be written to cover directors and/or officers of for-profit businesses, privately held firms, educational institutions, and not-for-profit organizations.

If you are a member of a Board of Directors, it makes sense to protect the individuals on that board from any personal liability for their service whilst on the board. Many people serve on boards for altruistic reasons, and that makes it particularly important that they are protected as they diligently perform service to the organisation.
