Alliance Risk vs Vouch Professional Liability (E&O) Insurance

Alliance Risk places professional liability (errors and omissions, or E&O) coverage as a broker, saying it backs placements with risk-specific underwriting input and carrier partnerships rather than underwriting the policy itself. ³Company-reported. Professional liability product page.

Vouch is a broker, not an insurer, for professional errors & omissions coverage. It lists Errors & Omissions among the core coverages it places for professional-services clients, and one of its named program partners, Corix, has a dedicated E&O product. ^8,9Company-reported. Vouch's Professional Services page and Corix's cyber/E&O product page.

The reviewed professional liability page does not name the insurer that would issue a policy; it refers generally to 'strong carrier partnerships' without identifying a specific carrier. ³Not publicly disclosed. Professional liability product page as read on 2026-09-23.

Corix's disclosures say its proprietary products, including its E&O line, are issued by State National Insurance Company or United Specialty Insurance Company. That names an insurer for Corix-branded E&O products specifically, not for every Vouch professional-liability placement. ¹⁰Company-reported. Corix disclosures page.

Alliance Risk targets professional liability at consultants and advisory firms, accountants and tax professionals, architects and engineers, real estate and insurance agents and brokers, marketing and PR agencies, IT and technology consultants, healthcare providers, and financial planners and investment advisors. ³Company-reported. Professional liability product page; eligibility for a particular company depends on underwriting.

Vouch markets professional E&O to accounting and finance, architecture/engineering/construction, IT consulting, management consulting, and marketing and creative agency firms. ⁸Company-reported. Vouch's Professional Services page; not an underwriting appetite guarantee for any specific applicant.

Alliance Risk lists negligent acts or omissions, breach of contract, misrepresentation, and missed deadlines as typically covered, and says bodily injury or property damage, intentional wrongdoing or fraud, employment disputes, cyber incidents, and prior known claims are excluded and belong to other lines such as general liability, EPLI or cyber liability. ³Company-reported. Professional liability product page; coverage and exclusions described in general terms, subject to the policy as issued.

Corix describes E&O as protecting a business against claims of negligence, mistakes or inadequate work that cause a client financial loss in the provision of professional services, including legal defense costs and any damages awarded, even when the claim is ultimately groundless. ⁹Company-reported. Corix's cyber and E&O product page; actual insuring agreements and exclusions are set by the issued policy.

The reviewed professional liability page gives cost ranges by firm size (for example, solo practitioners at $500-$3,000 a year up to mid-sized to large firms at $10,000-$50,000-plus) but does not publish specific coverage limits, retentions or deductible amounts for this line. ³Not found in reviewed sources.
