Directors and Officers insurance is a policy aimed at protecting the personal wealth advisors, corporate managers, general directors, managing directors or other equivalent posts.<\/p>\n

Although a company is taking out the policy, it covers the managers and directors against claims by third parties (regulatory bodies, creditors, competitors) including claims from the company in question (employees, shareholders) arising from their managerial decisions.<\/p>\n

It is a valid policy for small businesses or large organizations. A family SME can also receive claims for reasons such as inheritance or harassment.<\/p>\n

Claims against spouses, advisors, retired directors, subsidiary and affiliated companies are also included.<\/p>\n
