Computer Fraud
Each bond introduces clear, concise, and modern coverage for theft of funds that results from a computer hack, including systems hosted by third-party cloud service providers.
Chubb’s suite of Financial Institution Bonds has been designed to provide financial fidelity insurance solutions that complement a financial institution’s management and professional liability program.
Operational risks and regulatory and compliance needs look different than they did a decade ago; compliance and fiduciary risks for safeguarding customer and firm funds from hackers and criminals have never been more pronounced. And social engineering of employees, as well as the impersonation of customers, vendors, and executives, are not only commonplace, but such scams have become increasingly complex.
