Why do NFPs need insurance?

As a not-for-profit association, the value you add to your sector is priceless. By helping to connect like-minded people, sharing learning’s and advising around your sector, your service helps foster a strong community that is well-rounded, innovative and knowledgeable.

However, as with any NFP or charity, and even with the invaluable service you offer, there are a number of risks to which your organisation may be susceptible in day to day operations. It is therefore important that you have in place adequate insurance for your organisation. This can help you weather the storm if an event such as an allegation of negligence or mismanagement were to surface, and you were suddenly faced with significant legal costs.

When acting under a binder we will be acting under an authority given to Aon by the insurers and will be effecting the insurance contract as agent of the insurers and not as your agent. Any information provided about policies is general in nature and does not take into account your particular objectives, financial situation and needs. Before making a decision, you should carefully consider all information provided to you. Our binder arrangements with insurers are such that we remain your agent in the handling of any claim.
