COMMON TYPES OF BUSINESS INSURANCE
LIABILITY
Commercial General Liability insurance offers protection for your business against claims for bodily injury and property damage to third parties arising from your premises, operations, products and completed operations. It also offers protection for advertising liability and personal injury to third parties, as well as defence costs.
Professional Liability insurance is also known as Errors and Omissions insurance. It is designed to protect you against claims related to your delivery of professional services. Companies that provide professional services to clients are held to higher standards of duty and accountability. Your business may be liable if a client claims financial loss due to an error or omission on your part, or that of an employee. Errors and omissions liability insurance offers coverage beyond the scope of a general liability policy.
Directors and Officers Liability is designed to protect a director or officer of a company for liability resulting from negligence, error, or omission.
