If an allegation arose, how confident are you that the commercial D&O policy will cover you?
With increasing administrative and regulatory pressures on each INED’s time, not having sufficient time to fully address one’s own risks and protection is perhaps relatable to many.
With so many documents to process for every position held, reading each D&O policy for each appointment may not be top of your list.
But it should be a priority as lack of adequate cover could cost you personally – impacting your finances and reputation.
The Talisman survey of delegates at the 2022 ILA Directors’ Day showed that 85% believe that the risk of a liability claim against directors and executives is rising in Luxembourg.
Yet, only 46% check each D&O policy that they have for each role they undertake.
If an allegation arose, how confident would you be that the commercial D&O policy would cover you? And would you have immediate access to independent advice about your personal situation should legal action follow?
Interestingly, only 7% of the survey participants were ‘very confident’ that the commercial D&O policy would cover them adequately. And many others also stated: “you never know until the claim hits…”
But waiting until then may well be too late to access the instant advice and support you need.
