While it may seem incongruous to raise such matters in the season of goodwill, this month’s products and schemes pages are dominated by cyber crime, fraud, litigation and a change at Biba’s oldest scheme as the association dispensed with Sterling’s services and replaced the insurer with Aqua for its high net worth scheme.
Brokers looking for an early Christmas present for their business could be tempted by the CyberProtect service underwritten by Zurich and supplied by Marchant McKechnie Insurance Brokers.
The scheme protects businesses against data loss and offers a range of services including forensic investigations to recover company data in the event of accidental loss or malicious deletion.
Or perhaps this festive period will see brokers unwrapping the latest offering from Dual Corporate Risks which has released a new management liability product for private companies keen to protect themselves against losses arising from internal fraud.
While we were unable to bring you a reindeer-related product we did manage to rustle up an equine delegated authority scheme from Rural Insurance.
Not quite Rudolph, Blitzen, Dasher and Prancer but still an opportune way to end by wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a prosperous, fraud and cyber crime-free New Year.
