Civil Liability Insurance

The activities of regulators, the changing distribution of financial institutions products and a more informed and litigious consumer environment have resulted in financial institutions facing increased civil liability claims, often from unexpected claimants.

Civil Liability Insurance provides professional indemnity insurance for financial institutions on a civil liability basis.

Overview Back To Top

As well as increased claims volumes, financial institutions are now facing claims from different angles, such as breach of confidentiality or breach of copyright.

Claims are also received from claimants to whom financial institutions were not aware they had a duty of care towards and overseas users to financial institutions' web sites.

Civil Liability Insurance provides blanket protection against the financial consequences of a legally enforceable obligation in which a civil liability incurs arising from services provided. Covers include defence costs and civil penalties.

Customer Profile Back To Top

All financial institutions including banks, building societies, investment management companies, insurance companies and stockbrokers.
