Insurance for your
Directors & Officers
Protection for
business leaders
As a company director or senior executive, every decision you make carries responsibility and risk. In terms of the Companies Act, breaches of fiduciary duty can result in personal liability, meaning your personal assets including your pension fund could be on the line if things go wrong.
Auto & General Directors & Officers Insurance is designed to protect you against the legal and financial risks that come with leadership. With the right cover in place, you can focus on running your business with confidence, knowing you’re supported when it matters most.
Why Do You Need Directors & Officers Insurance?
Taking up a directorship means taking on a fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the company and to conduct yourself with care, skill, and good faith. This duty isn’t just expected, it’s required by law.
If a decision you make leads to financial loss for the company, its shareholders, or employees, you could be held personally liable for damages. Defending such claims can be costly, and without the proper cover, you could be putting your personal financial security at risk.
Directors & Officers Insurance provides essential protection, giving you peace of mind to lead boldly knowing you’re covered should a legal challenge arise.
