Airmic publishes new D&O guide

Risk management association Airmic and boutique specialist re/insurance broker McGill and Partners have launched a new guide, Directors & Officers Liability Insurance:Perfecting Governance; Liability challenges and questions.

Released during this year’s Airmic conference, the guide aims to provide an insider’s guide to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (D&O) for end users, and for board members in particular

Twelve questions make up the core of the guide, focusing on practical issues that commonly arise.

Although designed to be answered by reference to specific policy wordings, the answers are intended to provide general guidance as to the likely position, subject to the significant caveat that no two D&O policies are the same.

Julia Graham (pictured), CEO, Airmic, commented:

“Asking the ‘right’ questions about directors’ and officers’ liabilities and insurance, before a problem arises, makes good management sense.

“This guide is an important contribution to our members who support their leadership, as they collectively navigate an increasingly complex world and associated governance responsibilities.”
