Errors & Omissions Insurance

An advisor, who places business with Standard Life must maintain, at all times, at his/her own expense, Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance coverage. The type and minimum coverage required is pursuant to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

If your jurisdiction does not require E&O insurance, Standard Life requires that you obtain E&O with a minimum of one million dollar coverage per claim.

For a corporate Distributor who offers structured settlements, the minimum limit of coverage per claim is two million dollars with a minimum aggregate limit of four million dollars, exclusive of defence costs.

E&O for Corporate Entities

In certain jurisdictions entities must also maintain E&O coverage. If you are contracted as a corporation, we require that you obtain and maintain E&O for your corporation pursuant to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

For more information on your office's coverage, please view Q&A, developed by CLHIA and advisor associations (Advocis, CAILBA and IFB).
