Professional Indemnity
Professional Indemnity
Professions like Accountants, Architects, Engineers Lawyers and Doctors are highly regulated by local authorities and in many cases these professions are legally required to have professional indemnity insurance in place.
As a consequence of globalisation, when tendering for business overseas companies (especially those in the US, Europe, UK, and Australasia), professional service providers in South East Asia are increasingly subject to having professional indemnity insurance as one of the pre-requisite requirements.
Why You Need Professional Indemnity ?
Financial Protection
A single claim can ruin a business financially since litigation can be expensive, time-consuming and resource-consuming. Minaris’ Professional Indemnity insurance specialist advice will ensure you are fully covered when faced with such claims.
Reputation Protection
If you are a professional, your reputation is everything and maintaining this reputation is critical. In the event of a claim, our claims team will conduct the claim process efficiently and discreetly to safeguard our Insured's reputation.
Customer Protection
Professional Indemnity insurance aims to remove the financial burden for the professional service provider. This helps to minimise the fear of economic loss and provides peace of mind which enables the professional to focus on what’s important – servicing their clients
Litigation Environment
The increasing economic interdependency and culture exchange between the West and the East is contributing to higher claims awareness among professionals like yourself. The rapidly escalating number and size of professional indemnity claims demonstrate the litigious environment in Southeast Asia.
