Errors And Omissions: Insurance For Technology-Based Businesses

Who is E & O for?
Those who develop, manufacture, sell and supply the following:

  • Telecommunications
  • IT
  • Medical Manufacturing
  • Electronics Manufacturing
 
E&O coverage provides protection for companies and businesses in the event that an error, omission or negligent act in relation to both their products and services has caused a financial loss for their client. A claim can bankrupt a smaller company or individual and have a lasting effect on the bottom line of larger companies.
 
Technology Businesses - New products, New technology and New risks too
Errors and omissions is vital because sometimes, despite your best efforts, customers tell you that your product or your service failed to meet expectations or that you breached contract terms. If this happens, even the most loyal customer or client may make a claim against you or file legal proceedings for subsequent financial loss.
 
Our understanding of the technology industry enables us to deliver customised insurance solutions. Our Errors and Omissions cover is designed to work in tandem with traditional property and liability insurances.
