Directors & officers insurance in Sacramento can help you cover the board that guides your nonprofit.
Directors and officers are there to help make your life easier by guiding your nonprofit towards the right business decisions. Directors and officers make decisions to help your efforts grow and succeed, but sometimes what they suggest may lead to consequences they didn’t anticipate. Even though they’re working to help your nonprofit benefit others, board members can (and likely will) be held liable for their actions. That’s where directors & officers insurance in Sacramento comes in.
This coverage is one of the least understood insurance products. Board members make mistakes, along with every other human being in the world. Unfortunately, their mistakes may result in some very serious consequences. If they’re held liable, you’ll need D&O coverage to protect them.
