When is VSH insurance important?

This insurance is particularly important for professional fields in which wrong decisions or consulting errors can result in high financial losses, such as for law firms, tax consultants, auditors, management consultants and IT service providers.

What damage is covered?

The insurance covers pure financial losses caused by errors, omissions or breaches of duty by the policyholder. This includes, for example

  • Advice errors
  • Incorrect expert opinions
  • Failure to meet deadlines
  • Incorrect drafting of contracts
  • IT misconfigurations
What is not covered?

  • Damage caused by legal or official requirements
  • Contractual penalties and fines
Which professional groups need VSH insurance?

Yes, many insurers offer pecuniary loss liability insurance policies tailored to the needs of specific professional groups, taking into account the typical risks and requirements of these professions.

Is there a subsequent liability insurance?

Yes, subsequent liability insurance provides cover for claims that occur after the financial loss liability insurance has ended but were caused during the term of the policy. This is particularly important when a company is closed or sold.

What is the difference to professional indemnity insurance?
