What does Professional indemnity combined cover?
Markel provides a competitive insurance product with core covers as standard and optional covers available as the insurance needs grow, or change. As the optional covers are embedded within the main wording, this ensures a robust and transparent coverage with no gaps in cover.
What’s more, all covers are traded via one proposal form making the process easier for you and your clients. Due to the covers being modular, this allows the covers to be taken off and added on to ensure that the policyholder has sufficient cover within their budget.
Our menu of covers includes:
- Professional liability
- Public products liability
- Entity defence
- Employers' liability
- Employment law protection
- Executive liability
- Property damage
- Business interruption
- Money and personal assault
- Damage to portable property
- Fidelity
- Cyber and data risks
- PR crisis management
