Product Fact Sheet

Directors and Officers Liability

Directors and Officers Liability gives directors and officers the piece of mind that their personal financial assets are protected in case of legal action against their decisions.  Alternatively, it can reimburse the corporation for what they compensate (indemnify) directors and officers because of legal action.  Securities actions against the company can also be covered under these policies.

​
