We offer enterprise-wide solutions that are precisely crafted for life science companies, with specialised products for general liability, products and human clinical trials liability as well as errors and omissions. 
 

General Liability

This hybrid cover offers a dual trigger – an occurrence trigger for premises/operations and a claims-made trigger for products hazard liability. Traditional stand-alone policies are also available.
