Directors' and Officers' Liability
D&O Liability insurance protects company directors, officers and senior managers against claims arising from the decisions and actions they may take whilst managing their businesses. Anyone in these roles has their official duties formally established through statutes, regulations and case law, such as the Companies Act 2006, Insolvency Act 1986, Financial Services Act 1986 and Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. Their obligations also extend to acting honestly and in good faith, having the best interests of the company present at all times and ensuring that they have no conflicts of interest.
Areas of cover include:
- Health and Safety at Work Act
- Breach of Contract
- Data Protection
- Racial and Discrimination
- Ageism and Disability
- Insolvency Act (wrongful trading)
- Consumer Protection
