At Shield Insurance Broker, Inc., we understand the critical role directors and officers play in the success and stability of any organization. However, with this responsibility comes the potential for legal actions and financial liabilities. That’s why we offer comprehensive Directors and Officers Liability Insurance to safeguard the personal assets of your company’s decision-makers.

What is Directors and Officers Liability Insurance?

Directors and Officers Liability Insurance, commonly known as D&O insurance, is designed to protect corporate directors and officers, as well as the organization itself, from claims alleging wrongful acts, errors, mismanagement, and breaches of duty in the performance of their duties.

Key Features and Benefits:

1. Protection for Directors and Officers: D&O insurance provides financial protection for directors and officers against personal losses arising from legal actions brought against them for alleged wrongful acts in their capacity as leaders of the organization.

2. Coverage for Legal Costs and Damages: The policy covers legal expenses, judgments, settlements, and other costs associated with defending against lawsuits or regulatory actions.

3. Entity Coverage: D&O insurance also extends coverage to the organization itself, protecting its assets and interests in cases where it may be named in a lawsuit alongside its directors and officers.

4. Broad Range of Claims: D&O insurance typically covers a wide range of claims, including allegations of negligence, breach of fiduciary duty, employment practices violations, securities fraud, and more.

5. Tailored Coverage Options: We offer customizable coverage options to suit the unique needs and risk profile of your organization, including limits of liability, coverage extensions, and deductible options.

6. Risk Management Resources: Our D&O insurance policies often come with access to risk management resources and legal expertise to help prevent claims and mitigate potential risks within your organization.
