Portfolio Company D&O Insurance
As a director or officer of a closely held private company, why do you really need Directors & Officers (D&O) liability insurance? Litigation naming directors and officers of private companies can stem from founders or investors in the company, from competitors, clients, current or former employees, and the government. The costs to defend such litigation can fatally cripple an emerging company’s finances and reputation.
