What we offer

We have designed this package of cover to meet the needs of the media sector, offering a seamless set of policies with Professional Indemnity at its heart along with our pioneering Cyber Beazley Breach Response product providing a full breach response service in the event of a data breach. The available package also extends to Employee Liability (EL) and Professional Liability (PL), Office Combined Package and Directors & Officers Liability (D&O) insurance. There is no need to worry about gaps between different elements of the cover as we have designed these products to fit together.

Our specialist team has extensive experience in this sector and we have created policy wordings with clear and concise language which is consistent across all the policies. And, should the worst happen, clients can have peace of mind in the knowledge that they can call on our bespoke response and claims services.
