Financial Planner Professional Liability Insurance Coverage

Financial Planner Professional Liability Insurance (also known as Financial Adviser Errors & Omissions Insurance, or Financial Services E&O) protects all types of financial planning professionals if a client alleges that you were professionally negligent or failed to perform professional duties, or in the case of the failure of your work to perform as promised.

Financial Planner / Tax Adviser E&O Insurance coverage is available for all types of financial services providers, including:

  • Financial Planners
  • Tax Advisers / Consultants / Tax Preparers
  • Actuaries

Financial Services Professional Liability Insurance Protects Your Business

The high cost of a legal defense could put your financial services firm out of business. Your company's survival and your personal financial security depend upon protecting yourself against the impact of a lawsuit.

Almost any  firm or individual that improperly performs services can cause a client to suffer an economic loss - and mounting a defense is expensive. The impact of even a baseless claim can be devastating. Would your company have the resources and expertise to defend against such a claim?  Request a Quote

Why Do I Need Financial Planner E&O Insurance? 

As a successful financial planner or tax adviser, you are a trusted professional. Your clients count upon you for advice and services that impact their lives and their standard of living. An Errors & Omissions Policy helps protect the valued relationships you have developed by protecting both your client and your own financial security.

Mistakes Happen. Even the most skilled professionals are likely to make an error at some point. From catastrophic equipment failures to human oversights that result in personal injury, many incidents can result in a lawsuit.

You Can't Be All Places At Once. As your financial services business becomes more successful, you may not be able to personally handle every aspect of each consultation. Errors & Omissions coverage insures not only your mistakes, but also the mistakes of the employees and independent contractors you hire.  Request a Quote

What Is Covered by Financial Adviser Errors and Omissions Insurance?

Financial Adviser Professional Liability Insurance includes legal defense costs - no matter how baseless the allegations. It will pay for any resulting judgments against you, including court costs, up to the coverage limits on your policy.

Some of your clients may require that you and your subcontractors carry Errors & Omissions insurance. The right kind of E&O policy can protect both your firm and subcontractors from claims of a perceived error or omission, even if the problem occurs months after the initial consultation.  Request a Quote

Doesn't My General Liability Insurance Provide the Same Protection?

Errors and Omissions insurance coverage is not provided by a Commercial General Liability policy. Commercial General Liability does NOT provide coverage for errors, contract performance disputes or any other Professional Liability issues. Financial planners, tax advisers and pension consultants who have General Liability without Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions) coverage are taking a serious risk. It's like a doctor practicing medicine without Malpractice Insurance.  Request a Quote
