Financial institutions are faced with a wide array of exposures on a daily basis.  Risk management involves avoiding risk or financing those losses that do occur.  An organization may choose insurance as a form of risk transfer for its risks from accidental loss.  Typical coverage available to a financial institution includes:

Financial Institution Bond

Protects financial institution against employee dishonesty, robbery, hold-up, computer theft, forgery or alteration of checks, forgery or alteration of loan collateral, extortion threats, and safe deposit liability losses.

Directors’ & Officers’ Liability Insurance

Protects directors, officers, and employees against suits brought against them for negligent acts, errors, or omissions in the management of the financial institution.

Financial Institution Lender Liability

Protects the financial institution against suits brought by a borrower for a wrongful lending act.

Check Kiting Fraud

Protects the financial institution against loss resulting from a check kiting scheme.

Employment Practices Liability

Protects the financial institution and its directors and officers against suits brought by employees or employment candidates alleging any actual or alleged wrongful employment acts.

Excess Directors’ & Officers’ Liability

Purchased by the qualifying financial institution to provide limits in excess of the Directors’ & Officers’ Liability limits written by the underlying (primary) carrier.

Bankers Professional Liability

Protects financial institution against negligent acts, errors, or omissions in providing, or failing to provide Professional Services on behalf of a customer.

Property & Casualty Insurance

Protection for the financial institution’s building, contents, business autos, computer equipment, ATM’s, and extra expense exposures.  Also included are General Liability, Workers’ Compensation, and Commercial Umbrella coverages.

Cyber Liability Insurance

Protects the financial institution from liability due to actual or alleged failure to protect customers’ confidential information, unintentional failure to prevent the transmission of a computer virus, and failure to provide authorized users with access to the financial institution’s web site.

Mortgage Interest Insurance

Protects the financial institution’s interest in mortgaged property where there is a lack or insufficiency of the borrower’s insurance.  The financial institution must confirm the actual existence of insurance at loan closing and react to cancellation notices thereafter.  The program is compliant with secondary market requirements.

Equipment Maintenance Management

Reduces the high costs and inefficiencies associated with maintaining and managing multiple vendor maintenance contracts on the institution’s financial banking equipment, data processing equipment, alarms, cameras, office equipment, and communications equipment.  Cost reductions typically range from 10 – 20% over current maintenance contract expenses.
