Directors & Officers Liability Insurance or D & O Insurance
- Directors
& Officers Liability Insurance is a form of professional liability insurance
that will cover the legal expenses and liability of your directors and officers
to shareholders, bondholders, creditors or others arising from certain covered
acts or omissions of a director or officer. Its high premiums (cost) make it a
luxury for a private corporation. For a public company it is a cost of doing
business in order to recruit quality candidates to its Board of
