SCHAUMBURG, Ill., Feb. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zurich American Insurance Company, a member company of Zurich North America, has added a standalone Side A Directors & Officers insurance coverage option for U.S.-based multinational companies with non-U.S. board members and officers.

These are known as non-indemnifiable losses.

Key Points: 
  • The new policy, the latest addition to the award-winning International Towers by Zurich suite of D&O solutions, goes beyond fulfilling this essential need.

  • International Programs by Zurich (IPZ) has earned a reputation for innovative solutions, winning three awards from Business Insurance in the past two years, including one in 2022 for the original International Towers by Zurich .
