Professional Indemnity insurance – what is it about?
Probably, any organisation that provides professional services or consulting may sooner or later receive claims from dissatisfied customers. You might be claimed for being negligent, delivering the wrong consultancy or instructions, or making another mistake that resulted in financial losses of a client.
Professional indemnity (PI) insurance shall protect businesses whose clients suffer losses because of their improper service or advice.
What shall we insure against?
Professional negligence or breach of a duty of care
Negligent misstatement, misrepresentation, or defamation
Breach of confidence when private information is disclosed without client’s consent
Unintentional breach of copyright
Recovery of lost or damaged documents
