Risk Management - Insurances, Professional Indemnity Insurance

When operating a limited company it is vital to consider whether your company and the individuals operating through the company need to take out any insurance. The need to take out insurance may be due to a legal obligation, a contractual requirement or indeed simply due a personal need.

Professional Indemnity Insurance

Such insurance may be required if your company is giving professional advice to third parties. The insurance will cover any actions brought against the company for claims of negligent advice given by your company.

Professional specialists such as accountants, lawyers and architects are often required to hold this insurance.

The level of cover required will vary depending on what your client insists upon. However, current requirements tend to range from £250,000 - £5 million.
