Policy Highlights

Extended General Liability insurance eliminates certain “end of policy period” restrictions for injury or damage. For a company like yours where there can be potentially long time frames between when a product is developed, when it caused injury, when you knew about the injury, and when an insurance claim is filed, this provides significantly broader insurance, and peace of mind.
Unlike most insurance company policies, Chubb’s business income insurance responds until you have an operational restoration of your business - even if the delay is lengthened beyond the period property is restored due to FDA recertification times.
Blanket clinical trial insurance protects you from inadvertent insurance gaps from a failure to report.
Errors and omissions (financial/economic injury), intellectual property infringement liability, media liability, privacy liability and privacy remediation expense are addressed via Integrity+ by Chubb, a single, blended liability policy that helps minimize critical insurance gaps.
Customarq Global Extension expands your domestic property and liability insurance worldwide. Broad difference in conditions insurance from local contracts and admitted underlying insurance policies in foreign countries where required. You benefit from a coordinated approach and dependable quality from Chubb’s multinational infrastructure.

Think LEADERSHIP. Think Chubb.
