Markel boosts D&O offering

Markel International has launched three new directors and officers (D&O) products.

It has also enhanced its existing directors’ and officers’ wording.

The new products relate to investment funds, fund managers and the liabilities arising from securities launches.

Markel has also enhanced its general D&O product, expanding the definition of directors and officers, as well as increasing discovery provisions and providing full cover for acquired subsidiaries.

Patrick White, senior D&O underwriter at Markel International, said: “With these products Markel can now truly cover all aspects and types of risk in the directors’ and officers’ universe.”
