Construction Projects (D&C) Professional Indemnity Policy

Pacific Indemnity Product

Contractors undertaking large projects - including infrastructure projects - are often required to undertake the project under a design and construct contract. While the contractor may be responsible under the contract for the design, the design may in fact be undertaken by external professional engineering consultants on behalf of the contractor, or the contractor may have an internal design department or the design may have already been undertaken for the client and the contract requires that design contract to be 'novated' to the contractor.

Notwithstanding the method the contractor will inevitably be required to effect professional indemnity insurance for the design and to maintain that for the construction period and for a period following completion of the construction. Inevitably a multi-year specific project professional indemnity policy will be required.

Multi-Media Liability

Pacific Indemnity Product

Communications & publication media now takes many new forms, beyond the traditional newspapers, books, magazines, radio & TV. Modern technology brings us publication risks from the internet and its derivative applications including digital broadcasting. These add significantly greater liability risk due predominantly to the significantly increased size of the audience. In addition the risk is increased due to the greater number of legal jurisdictions in which action can be commenced, as a result of the fact that defamation (and arguably intellectual Property breach) occurs where the publication is accessed - which, in the case of internet publication, can be anywhere in the world.

Replacing traditionally issued Defamation insurance policies, the Pacific Indemnity Multi-Media policy has been developed in the style of a Civil Liability Professional Indemnity policy - providing broad cover under the operative clause - including breach of professional duty (for the content of the publications), breach of confidentiality, breach of privacy, defamation and many other risks. In addition the policy offers automatic extensions including Withdrawal of Content and cover for Misleading and Deceptive Conduct Breaches (under the ASIC Act and the Competition and Consumer Act and the states Fair Trading Acts).
