Director’s liability insurance

KBC Liability Insurance for Directors and Officers

What is directors' and officers' liability?

Directors and officers of a company or non-profit organisation can be held liable if they fail to perform their duties properly and loss or damage occurs as a consequence.

Directors’ & Officers’ Liability Insurance protects directors against financial claims arising from errors or mistakes they make: we will pay compensation and also the defence costs.

Who's covered?

Directors’ & Officers’ Liability Insurance protects all the directors of your company or non-profit organisation.

You take out the insurance to cover all past, present and future directors. That way, you protect each director automatically and don't have to list them all separately in the policy.

What are the main exclusions?

  • Deliberate loss or damage
  • Fines and penalties
  • Harm already covered by other insurance policies, such as property damage and bodily injury

The complete list of exclusions is available in the general conditions.

Your premium

The premium you pay depends on a number of factors, including:

  • Your financial situation
  • Size
  • Type of business
  • Claims history

Full protection for your business operations
