Professional indemnity insurance
OUR ASSESSMENT
AXA lists copyright and confidentiality protection as optional, creating an important comparison with a policy that includes those risks in its core wording. Compare the exact product and selected options in the side-by-side category table, then check the accepted quotation and policy schedule.
Features to compare
- The product overview advertises cover levels up to £5 million with defence costs and qualifying compensation.
- Specialist wording is available for certain professions.
Limitations and checks
- Breach of copyright and breach of confidentiality are identified as optional additions.
- Retroactive dates, notification requirements and the accepted professional services must be checked in the actual contract.
The question to ask
Have the confidentiality and intellectual-property extensions been included, and what date applies to previous work?
Before arranging cover
Use the current policy wording and your quotation schedule to confirm these points. Our assessment is desk research, not a first-hand claims test or a personal recommendation. We have not assigned a product score or established comparable claims-service performance.
