Financial Lines Insurance Policy

Directors and Officers Insurance (D&O) is one of the most important Financial Lines Insurance cover your company needs to be equipped with. We know that the directors and officers of your company play a very integral role in its success and that all the strategic decisions depend upon them.

We understand that they have to make big decisions, often complex ones, on a daily basis for the growth and development of your company. If your company is operating at an international level, then your directors not only have to keep in mind domestic markets and regulations but also corporate governance and compliance regulations of numerous markets across the globe.

Directors and managers, with such high impact, high pressure roles, can make mistakes and are constantly on the edge. If they have the fear of being held personally liable for them, they may not take risks and risk-taking is essential when you’re running a business. Moreover, they are vulnerable to wrongful allegations from third parties including other employees and stakeholders.

Bajaj Allianz Directors and Officers Insurance (D&O) Policy is carefully designed to protect your directors, officers and senior managerial staff against claims arising out of their decisions and actions taken within the scope of their official duties. We also cover the costs for defence if they face criminal or regulatory charges.

With the help of our Directors and Officers Insurance (D&O) Policy, you and your company can function in an environment of security, knowing that you have us to fall back on.

If your business is international, you already know that so are the risks it faces. You need a partner who offers you global solutions that are customised to take on the growing and complex business risks around the world. We, at Bajaj Allianz, with the help of our International Insurance Programs (IIPs) for worldwide exposures and industry expertise, are just that.

Under this cover of our Financial Lines Insurance, we have designed tailor-made solutions to effectively tackle the multi-national risks of your company, no matter the industry or the size.

Our expert teams are equipped to handle risks and apply loss control approaches effectively, so you don’t have anything to worry about and can go ahead and expand your operations in any part of the world. 

One of the biggest challenges faced by businesses in recent times is being sued by their employees on a plethora of grounds. It’s not just large corporations that face this danger; organisations of all sizes are vulnerable to this risk.

The most common grounds on which employees tend to sue their employers are wrongful termination, discrimination, failure to employ or promote, sexual harassment, wrongful discipline and mismanagement of employee benefit plans.

In such a scenario, Employment Practices Liability (EPLI) is an essential Financial Lines Insurance Policy to have. It offers your company the kind of protection it needs to facilitate you and your management to work with peace of mind without the constant threat of lawsuits. 

When you want to raise capital from the public or trade your securities in a regulated market, you need to issue a prospectus. The prospectus issued is critical, for if any information mentioned in it is proved to be even slightly inaccurate, the investor can claim the full value of their loss from your company.

Such claims can be made not only at the time of the issue of prospectus but also years later. Hence, every time you make a public offering and issue a prospectus, you are opening your company up to potential liabilities.

Additionally, you and the directors of the company can face civil and criminal charges if its proven that the prospectus contains misleading or inaccurate information.

Yes, such a risk requires you to take great care in preparing your prospectus, but it also calls for the protection of Prospectus Liability Insurance which is a key Financial Lines Insurance Policy.

Our Prospectus Liability Insurance Policy will cover you against liabilities arising out of your issued prospectus.

If your company offers expert advice to clients, you may already be aware of all the threats the nature of such a business poses, which is why you need to secure your company with the protection of Bajaj Allianz Commercial Professional Indemnity Insurance without delay.
