Why You need D&O Insurance

There are risks to running your business. But why leave those potential risks exposed. Below are a few scenarios.

  • Scenario 1: Your company acquires talent from another business and starts to promote a similar product. The business sues you for potentially stealing their intellectual property rights.
  • Scenario 2: You sit on a school board and collectively make a decision that some parents disagree with. In a legal case, your personal assets could be at risk.

In the above scenarios, it pays to have the correct insurance to pay for any legal fees.

It’s important that you carry out your organization’s daily business operations. A solid D&O insurance policy helps you avoid unnecessary costs.
