Article on Professional Indemnity Insurance

There has been a growing interest in the insurance policy Professional Indemnity Insurance from new and established businesses. The policy was originally brought together to cover the major professions and demand from regulating bodies such as the law society and chartered institute of accountants along with the (ARB) Architects Registration Board made it a requirement for their registered member to arrange covers and therefore solicitors, architects and accountant Professional Indemnity Insurance became compulsory.

Sometime later Insurance Brokers estate agents and Independent Financial Advisors regulators made Professional Indemnity Insurance a requirement for those professionals to operate their businesses.

As the demand for companies and their directors and officers to act in a more responsible way towards their clients so the PII policy became more popular, however, instead of perhaps being a nuisance and extra cost to the business, the insurance policy offered great protection to the company and its staff.
