Summary

Easily compare the leading insurers’ policies with detailed analyses of more than 250 D&O forms.

D&O MAPS provides a comprehensive analysis of more than 300 available directors and officers (D&O) liability policies by company and category. Each analysis highlights policy provisions that are broader than standard, in blue and provisions that are more restrictive than standard, in red. This unique system allows for fast, easy comparison of forms and quickly reveals both strengths and weaknesses in every insurer’s policy. The analyses encompass more than 20 different lines of D&O coverage.

If you subscribe on IRMI Online, the service includes a D&O Policy Explorer feature that allows you to see a side-by-side display of the provisions from any two D&O policy forms. This unique analysis and the side-by-side wording display make it easy to compare one D&O policy to another to determine how the coverage terms stack up and identify provisions to negotiate or modify.

These policy analyses are supported by copies of the policy forms and insurers' applications as well as the most comprehensive discussion of D&O coverage terms available. The D&O Coverage Guide contains a comprehensive, user-friendly analysis of the major and minor provisions found within D&O policy forms and is packed with numerous, practical tips on how to negotiate broader versions of these provisions.
