The self-employed, freelancers and service providers in Poland have one thing in common, regardless of whether they “only” advise on projects or also implement them: Even a small mistake in their business can have fatal financial consequences.
Taking out financial loss liability insurance is recommended – and in some cases mandatory – for many groups of professionals as a way of safeguarding their existence in the event of expensive claims for compensation from third parties. It is crucial that this type of professional indemnity insurance insures pure financial losses, whereby the amount of coverage or the sum insured can be selected individually when taking out the policy online. Financial losses are by far one of the most common types of damage in Poland in the digital age. exali.com specialises in financial loss liability insurance for consultants, IT and engineering service providers, creative and media agencies, and many other service professions for over 15 years.
Financial loss liability covers all individuals and companies who may cause financial or immaterial damage to a third party (e.g. customer or client) in the course of their professional activity. Freelancers, the self-employed and companies are often affected due to consulting, planning or programming errors, violations of rights and project delays. In private liability insurance, professional financial losses are generally excluded. Private liability, as the name suggests, only insures private individuals. Damage caused while carrying out a profession or trade is therefore not insured. With professional indemnity insurance from exali.com, financial loss liability is automatically included as basic protection. For comprehensive coverage, our basic protection also includes general liability insurance, which additionally insures personal injuries and property damage.
Real or pure financial losses, as they are known in technical jargon, are losses that cause financial disadvantages for customers or other third parties and are not a result of property damage or personal injury. That’s why pure financial losses are also sometimes referred to as immaterial damage. Financial losses typically arise from consulting or programming errors, system failures, delays in the project and so on.
Examples of Pure Financial Losses Include:
- an incorrect assessment by a business consultant
- a programming bug that destroys a database
- costs for written warnings from a competitor
- cyber attacks that leads to IT costs
