Protection to address current and emerging risks
In an ever-evolving regulatory landscape coupled with market fluctuations and an expanding, more diverse (and oftentimes, more litigious) client base, financial institutions need to maintain proper safeguards to protect their business. Financial institutions are constantly under immense scrutiny from:
- Regulatory agencies and enforcement bodies
- Aggressive plaintiff’s bar
- Shareholders
- Employees
- Creditors
- And other stakeholders and interested parties

FAQs

Directors and Officers (D&O) liability insurance protects the personal assets of directors and officers from potentially crippling financial loss in the event of a legal action brought against them in their respective capacities. The D&O policy also provides coverage for the organization when the entity is named as a defendant or target, or when the organization is required to indemnify a director or officer for a covered wrongful act.
