Additional Information


APLI is synonymous with nonprofit directors and officers (D&O) insurance. The forms are similar to, although broader than, those covering the directors and officers of for-profit companies. Unlike the latter, association professional liability policies also cover employment practices liability (EPL) claims, the nonprofit entity, and persons in addition to directors and officers (e.g., employees, volunteers, committee members).
