Management liability insurance such as Errors and Omissions Insurance (E&O) and Directors and Officers Liability Insurance (D&O) can help family owned businesses and senior leaders deflect many of the risks to which managers and fiduciaries are exposed. The risk scenarios are wide-ranging and in this session we’ll explore:
In today’s ever-connected world, security threats continue to evolve while the sources of threats remain elusive and sophisticated.

Senior leaders increasingly take opportunities to sit on boards or serve as executives of outside entities. But while serving in that capacity, is an individual director or officer covered under his/her organization’s directors and officers (D&O) liability insurance policy? Although such opportunities may benefit all companies involved, it also raises significant liability issues. As a result, it is critical to understand how D&O insurance protects executives that serve on other companies’ boards.
Companies manage many risks, and it’s easy for boards to get bogged down discussing financial and compliance risks. But that can mean they’re not paying enough attention to risks that are truly critical, including cybersecurity that is continually evolving or threatening. Directors need to make sure they have an effective risk management (ERM) program and are focusing on the right key risks—the ones that could spell success or failure for the company.
Today, more business and IT executives are implementing dynamic threat intelligence and information sharing to shift cybersecurity and privacy capabilities from reactive to proactive. They understand that they can build business advantages and customer trust by detecting, responding to and mitigating cyberthreats in real time.
As more and more of our daily tasks are accomplished in the digital realm, the possibility of a cyber incident and subsequent identity theft continues to increase. Understanding the potential impact such incidents can have on a family office or business is critical when determining how to deter such threats and mitigate identity theft.

In 2009 the Bitcoin blockchain emerged as a form of a smart contract and has since evolved. From both a technological and legal perspective, smart contracts will continue to evolve and disrupt in digital asset sales and capital markets, supply chain management, smart government records and smart cities, real estate land registries, and self-sovereign identity systems.
