A new guide, this addresses 12 frequently asked questions associated with D&O coverage, posed from a director’s perspective. The Guide aims to provide an insider’s guide to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (D&O) for end users, and for board members in particular. Twelve questions make up the core of the guide, focusing on practical issues that commonly arise. Although designed to be answered by reference to specific policy wordings, the answers are intended to provide general guidance as to the likely position, subject to the significant caveat that no two D&O policies are the same.
