Vital Cover
Projects undertaken by Management Consultants may involve the identification of best practices, change management, technology implementations, and strategy development amongst many others. The degree of skill and care required of the professional remains that which should reasonably be expected of a competent person in that profession. A liability may exist in any situation where a client makes a business decision based on the perceived skill or expertise of a consultant.
Client demands place greater responsibilities on those providing professional services than ever before, and greater contractual responsibilities leave consultants more vulnerable to being sued. Professional Indemnity insurance is an essential part of protecting both your business and your reputation.

- Cover in respect of claims for negligence and breach of duty of care.
