D&O insurance - the shifting sands of risk

Now in its sixth year, the Directors and Officers (D&O) Insurance trends and insights report continues to track the legal, regulatory and risk developments shaping the governance environment in Aotearoa New Zealand.

As directors navigate an increasingly volatile environment, this year’s report explores the evolving risk landscape from litigation and regulation to climate, technology, and insurance market shifts. Staying steady is helped with both foresight and firm footing.

Directors and officers operate in an extremely difficult environment. The fundamental principles governing their conduct have come under increasing judicial and regulatory scrutiny in New Zealand over the last few years.

There is little directors or officers can do to diminish the complexity of the business, legal and regulatory environment in which they operate. However, a great deal can be done to protect your personal assets through a combination of strong corporate governance, broad corporate indemnification and a risk transfer programme that includes a high quality Directors and Officers liability insurance programme.

Whether you are an independent professional director, are a company executive or run your own business, Marsh can help you manage your reputational and liability risks.

We can also assist you with identifying and managing risks within the organisations that you work for through the provision of risk management advice and appropriate business insurance cover.
