Directors and Officers Liability

It can be hostile out there. We're here for protection.

In today's volatile market, disgruntled investors often look to corporate directors and officers to recoup their losses, whether from a failed merger, bankruptcy or a drop in stock price. In addition, the passage of recent federal laws has created stricter stock and accounting rules that leave little room for error. All in all, it's a much tougher environment for large public corporations with shareholders, regulators and employees more willing than ever to file a lawsuit.

Zurich provides outstanding protection against claims that put corporate and individual directors' and officers' assets at risk. Our Corporate D&O liability coverage provides insurance and risk management solutions that take precise aim at the various perils facing publicly held organizations. Plus, Zurich also offers coverage for the personal assets of directors and officers, which are often the target of lawsuits if the company is not able to indemnify them.

No one said corporate life at the top would be easy. But no one should be left unprotected from its unique risks.
