AIG vs Alliance Risk D&O Insurance

AIG offers D&O standalone or modular with other management-liability coverages. ³Company-reported. AIG management-liability portfolio. Claim limitation: Combination availability can vary by account and jurisdiction. Section limitation: Company marketing does not substitute for the issued policy, state-specific forms or entity-level confirmation.

Alliance Risk places D&O insurance as a broker: it reviews a company's existing D&O program and markets the risk to carriers that specialize in management liability. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page; Alliance Risk does not underwrite the policy itself.

The reviewed D&O page does not name the insurer that would issue a policy; it says Alliance Risk markets a company's risk to carriers that specialize in management liability, so the issuing insurer depends on the placement. ⁷Not publicly disclosed. D&O product page as read on 2026-09-23.

Alliance Risk says D&O is relevant to venture-backed and public companies, high-risk industries such as fintech, healthcare, real estate and financial services, companies going through M&A, IPO or leadership changes, nonprofits, and small private companies without outside investors. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page; eligibility for a particular company depends on underwriting.

Alliance Risk says a company should turn on D&O coverage at its first priced funding round, because institutional investment brings personal exposure for directors and officers from day one. ⁸Company-reported. Management liability page's program-staging guidance, describing D&O specifically among the three bundled lines.

AIG describes D&O protection for executive and corporate-governance exposures. ³Company-reported. AIG management liability product page. Claim limitation: Policy terms and coverage triggers control; no policy form reviewed here. Section limitation: Company marketing does not substitute for the issued policy, state-specific forms or entity-level confirmation.

Alliance Risk describes D&O policies it places as having three parts: Side A for individual directors and officers when the company cannot indemnify them, Side B reimbursing the company for indemnification costs, and Side C covering the company directly for certain liabilities. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page; actual policy structure and whether sides are combined or separately limited depend on the carrier and the policy as issued.

Alliance Risk lists standard D&O exclusions it sees, including fraud and intentional misconduct, criminal acts, bodily injury and property damage, and often prior acts before the policy started; it says employment practices and ERISA benefit-plan claims are typically excluded and need separate EPLI or fiduciary liability coverage. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page; exclusion wording varies by carrier and the policy as issued.

Alliance Risk publishes indicative Side A limit and premium ranges: mid-size companies ($5M-$50M revenue) typically carry $2M-$5M in Side A limits, and larger private companies $5M-$25M or more. It shows overall D&O premium bands from $2,500-$10,000 for small private companies up to $50,000-$500,000 for large private companies, noting fintech, crypto and venture-backed companies often pay 2-3x more. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page; illustrative bands, not a quote for any particular company.

Alliance Risk says entry-level management-liability packages that bundle D&O with EPLI and fiduciary often share a single aggregate limit, so a large EPLI or fiduciary settlement earlier in the policy year can reduce what is left for a later D&O claim; it says a specialist broker structures shared versus separate limits to manage that risk. ⁸Company-reported. Management liability page's discussion of bundled D&O, EPLI and fiduciary programs.

Alliance Risk offers a no-charge review of an existing D&O policy, identifying gaps in the Side A/B/C structure and missing endorsements and comparing the program to market options. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page, Get Your D&O Risk Review section.

AIG links to application forms for its Management and Professional Liability products and provides contact information for its national product and distribution teams. ³Company-reported. The Forms and Applications and national product/distribution contact sections on AIG’s US D&O product page. Claim limitation: The page supports form access and team contact information. It does not establish that application or placement must be routed through a broker, whether buyers or brokers submit a form, or any online quote/bind path. Section limitation: Company marketing does not substitute for the issued policy, state-specific forms or entity-level confirmation.

For a D&O quote, Alliance Risk asks for company revenue, industry and stage, board composition, investor structure, current D&O coverage and carrier, five-year claims history and upcoming events such as M&A or an IPO, and says it typically delivers proposals within a few business days. ⁷Company-reported. D&O product page, What We Need for Your Quote section; timing is a company estimate, not a guarantee.

The reviewed D&O page does not describe an Alliance Risk claims-handling or claims-advocacy process; it discusses what a D&O policy covers rather than how Alliance Risk itself supports a claim. ⁷Not found in reviewed sources. D&O product page as read on 2026-09-23.
