Four Examples of Why Associations Need Professional Liability Insurance

Recommended Coverage for Associations and Nonprofit Businesses

Helps protect the property an association owns and leases, including things like equipment, inventory, furniture, and fixtures. Associations and nonprofits can tailor coverage to fit the specific needs of their unique organizations.
 
This can include coverage if:
 
  • The association is unable to process electronic data.
  • The association loses income because utility services are interrupted.
  • The association is unable to complete member transactions because transmission lines are damaged.
Our General Liability Choice® policy from The Hartford covers property damage, including damage to rented properties, and accidents related to managing an association. This policy can also help protect the assets of an association if it is sued for negligence, personal injury, libel, slander, errors, omissions, misrepresentation in advertising, and more. The policy automatically covers employees, subject to the policy definitions and can easily be extended to cover others when needed.
