Cover you can count on

Your clients are demanding - they deserve and expect the utmost care and attention. That's not unreasonable considering the important role you play in their financial affairs.

And, of course, you consider yourself to be a safe pair of hands. You're rigorous in your methods and an expert in your profession.

But what happens when the numbers don't add up? If a client sues you for negligence, actual or alleged, you'll need to defend yourself. That's not quite as simple as it sounds; professional indemnity insurance claims are time-consuming and very expensive.

So professional indemnity insurance is a must. You'd expect us to say that of course, but it's a compulsory requirement for members of the ICAEW, ICAS and ACCA, and many other accountants' professional bodies insist you have it too.

We can arrange cover that complies with the standard policy wording required by all these professional bodies, and to the levels they stipulate. Click here for more information.



Professional indemnity insurance covers:

  • Negligence - a mistake you've made or something you failed to do
  • Loss of documents
  • Your own losses caused by the dishonesty of an employee

Is this the right policy for you?

Yes – if you work in any of these areas:

  • Accountancy
  • Bookkeeping
  • Tax consultancy
  • Financial reporting
  • Auditing

In fact, we should be able to find cover for any numbers-related line of work you're in. Feel free to give us a call if you're not sure which professional indemnity insurance policy is right for you.
