Marketing and Media Professional Indemnity Insurance 

MEDIA, MARKETING, COMMUNICATIONS, ADVERTISING, DESIGN, DIRECT MARKETING, PROMOTIONS, PR, PUBLISHING AND RELATED PROFESSIONS

Professional indemnity insurance indemnifies you from the legal liability and legal defence costs you may incur as a result of breaching a duty of care to your clients (third party losses).  Media and related professions will often require cover for ‘first party’ or ‘own’ losses also.   Your exposure will often arise in different areas than the usual professional indemnity insuring clause of negligent act error or omission.
Once classed as a miscellaneous profession the insurance industry has responded to the particular needs of Media and related professionals and a separate class of professional indemnity insurance developed.  The policy wordings have been constructed carefully and the insuring clauses are entirely suited to Media industry needs.
Blackfriars will provide quotations in respect of your professional indemnity insurance, working with a panel of insurers who will take time to fully understand the disciplines and operations involved within your business.
