Chubb enhances cyber coverage in new product targeting tech firms

Chubb has launched as new so-called MasterPackage solution for technology companies domiciled in the UK and Ireland which includes improved cyber coverage.

This is a comprehensive first and third party policy designed specifically to cater for the unique insurance needs of technology developers, producers and distributors operating in the middle market either domestically or on a multinational basis.

This latest iteration of Chubb’s existing technology provision now includes improved cyber cover and services and follows on from a series of enhancements made in 2016.
MasterPackage for technology companies includes in one policy all of the technology company’s property, business interruption, employers’ liability, public liability, product liability, professional indemnity and cyber covers.

Karen Strong, head of Industry Practices UKI, Chubb said: “Chubb has a long-standing and successful track-record of working with customers within the technology industry and has developed a comprehensive understanding of their needs. As this industry continues to grow and becomes increasingly specialised we want to better enable businesses operating in this sector to withstand some of the many and varied challenges – both tangible and intangible – they may face.

“Chubb’s new MasterPackage solution for technology companies has been designed to make life simpler for business in terms of coverage and ease of use. By packaging in this way we are able to offer extensive provision and coverage for our customers.

“MasterPackage for technology companies, combined with the industry expertise of Chubb’s technology underwriters, our specialist risk engineering provision (which includes specific Professional Indemnity and Cyber risk engineers) and the flexibility of our policy offering, creates a market-leading solution that meets the needs of this constantly changing and diverse sector.”
