Key Differences in Crime Insurance

Standalone crime or management-liability package

AIG presents crime insurance as a distinct product for commercial and government entities. Liberty Mutual places crime inside ProShield, a package policy combining multiple management-liability coverages for private and nonprofit organizations. Ask whether your organization can buy the Liberty Mutual crime coverage on its own or only with the package. 3 6 6

How the covered events are described

AIG's summary includes loss of money, securities and other assets from dishonesty, theft or fraud, including computer fraud. Liberty Mutual lists employee dishonesty, embezzlement, safe burglary and computer fraud as ProShield crime exposures, with selected enhancements.
