outside directorship liability coverage

Outside directorship liability coverage refers to the coverage provided by directors and officers (D&O) liability policies for service on boards of directors outside the insured firm.

Additional Information


Typically, such coverage only extends to service on the boards of nonprofit, rather than for-profit, companies. Outside directorship liability coverage is found within the majority of corporate D&O liability policies and is written on either a double excess or a triple excess basis.
