Helping ESOPs Navigate Management Liability Challenges

Many insurance carriers may decline to underwrite or entirely exclude coverage for recently established ESOPs.

Directors & Officers Liability (D&O) insurance for ESOPs excludes claims made under ERISA, and Fiduciary Liability policies often contain exclusions related to ESOP plans. And, ESOP fiduciaries are held to the same high standards of care as ERISA plans.

It’s crucial to work with a broker who specializes in ESOPs, is well-versed in the associated insurance implications, and has access to specialty carriers.
