Quotes

“One thing to consider from a client perspective, do you want to do business with a company that has not protected itself with a policy?” 

“If you think about having professional companies protect themselves, think about your dentist, think about your doctor, think about your attorney, think about your accountant—these individuals are providing a professional service, and there are times when they will commit a negligent act; they will inadvertently cause injury to their client. And the clients, have the opportunity to recover any damages or any losses related to that injury. Those services are insured by professional liability policy. Professional liability insurance policies are also available to companies that are in the financial sector—broker dealers, registered investment advisers.” 

“It’s very important for broker-dealers when they are considering pursuing professional liability insurance, number one, to make sure that they have an insurance broker who’s very familiar with that type of policy.”

“Fortunately, there are a number of carriers that are extending coverage for broker-dealers and RIA’s for cyber.”
