Professional Savers Public Liability Insurance for Company Development Professionals


Our standard cover is:

  • £1 million cover for public and products liability (with an option to increase to £2 million, £5 million or £10 million)
  • £10,000 cover for any financial loss (£50K cover optional)
  • Worldwide liability cover for temporary work abroad for up to 14 days (excluding the USA and Canada)

As a company development professional, having  insurance is crucial. Our public liability insurance covers you against claims if a client is injured or their property damaged while you are working. For example, a client could trip over your briefcase during a meeting.

What Is Company Development Insurance?

Company development insurance protects advisors guiding organisations on:

  • Business growth strategies
  • Optimising operations
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • Securing financing
  • Global expansion planning

However, flawed advice can directly impact client revenues, investments and shareholder value. Without insurance, just one error leading to financial or reputational damage could leave you facing substantial negligence claims.

Our tailored policies provide complete peace of mind that any loss claims caused by your services will be handled by your insurer.

FAQs

Company Development Insurance FAQs

Strategic corporate advice guides executive decisions often involving substantial investments and shareholder assets. If flawed guidance causes reputational damage, stalled growth or major financial loss, disgruntled clients can pursue sizable negligence claims against consultants to recover their losses. Specialist insurance covers resulting payouts and legal expenses.

We cover all core areas like:

  • New market entry planning and overseas expansion delivery
  • Mergers, acquisitions and divestitures
  • Securing private equity/VC financing
  • Organisational restructuring
  • Developing data-driven growth strategies and forecasts
  • Competitive benchmarking and industry analysis
  • Implementing digital transformation initiatives

Essentially any claims stemming from demonstrably inaccurate or unviable high-level recommendations that negatively impact client investments, revenues and valuation.

Our policies can be extended to cover any freelance associates, contractors or specialist partners providing company development consultancy services under your business name.

So if for example, a market researcher you engage provides deeply flawed analysis leading you to recommend an ill-advised expansion, resulting client loss claims against your firm would still be covered.

Some examples include:

  • Advising ambitious market expansion where demand is misjudged
  • Merger deals where major hidden skeletons later emerge
  • Acquisition pricing guidance not grounded in realistic valuation
  • Restructuring plans overlooking key regulations
  • Securing financing from investors providing inadequate capital

Even the most seasoned educated strategists make mistakes – our insurance is designed to cover loss scenarios like these resulting from human error, so your business is not jeopardised by a single misstep.
