AIG vs Amelia Risk: How Do They Compare for Cyber Insurance?

AIG markets three distinct cyber forms: CyberEdge, CyberEdge Plus and CyberEdge PC. AIG says coverage may be bought as a standalone CyberEdge policy or endorsed onto selected Financial Lines, Property and Casualty policies; the forms are not interchangeable descriptions of one coverage grant. ³Company-reported. AIG’s U.S. CyberEdge page; endorsement availability is stated only for selected policies. AIG’s legal footer says policies are written by subsidiaries or affiliates and coverage depends on underwriting and policy language.

Amelia Risk arranges cyber liability coverage for its clients, describing and structuring the policy around network security and privacy liability rather than underwriting it directly. ⁷Company-reported. Amelia's own cyber liability product page as of 23 September 2026. Does not establish who issues a particular client's policy.

Amelia Risk recommends buying cyber coverage early in a company's life, pointing to rising ransomware attacks against small businesses as the reason. ⁷Company-reported. Cyber product page timing guidance; a general recommendation, not a stated minimum revenue or headcount threshold.

AIG describes CyberEdge as addressing breach-related financial costs such as response, data restoration, network interruption and cyber extortion. CyberEdge Plus is described for physical-world losses caused by a cyber event, including business interruption, property damage and physical injury; CyberEdge PC is described as excess of traditional property and casualty policies on a difference-in-conditions/difference-in-limits basis. The page says actual coverage depends on the facts and policy terms, conditions and exclusions. ³Company-reported. Product summaries on AIG’s U.S. page, preserving differences among the three forms. Examples are not a promise that any loss or expense is covered under an issued policy.

Amelia describes its cyber liability placements as combining network security and privacy liability (protecting a client's networks against unauthorized access and protecting personal, health or other sensitive data) with first-party coverage for losses the business incurs and third-party coverage for claims alleging the business is at fault. ⁷Company-reported. Cyber product page description; the actual policy wording and sublimits depend on the issuing insurer and the client's declarations.

Amelia describes cyber-crime and social engineering coverage as a traditional add-on to the base cyber policy rather than something included by default. ⁷Company-reported. Cyber product page description as of 23 September 2026.
