Amelia Risk vs CFC Tech E&O Insurance

Amelia Risk is a brokerage, not an insurer, and it places Technology Errors & Omissions as its own listed policy line, separate from the general liability and umbrella grouping on its policies page. ^6,4Company-reported. Policies hub and dedicated Tech E&O page as read on 2026-09-23. Does not identify which insurer would issue a placed policy.

CFC's Technology product is a single package policy for technology companies that bundles errors & omissions liability, breach-of-contract cover, IP infringement and media liability, and cyber cover. ^8,9Company-reported. Technology product page and US product brochure; the policy as issued controls the exact scope for any one customer.

The dedicated Tech E&O page does not name an issuing insurer, wholesale market or program; Amelia Risk's general pages say it places business with the dozens of insurance companies it works with, so the actual carrier for a Tech E&O placement depends on underwriting. ^4,2Not publicly disclosed. Dedicated Tech E&O page and specialties process page, both as read on 2026-09-23. A checked gap, not a statement that no insurer exists.

The Technology application form names only CFC Underwriting Limited, a UK entity authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority, as the party administering the form. Neither the Technology product page nor the application discloses which specific insurer or Lloyd's syndicate capacity backs a given US Technology policy. ^11,10Not publicly disclosed. Technology application footer and the regulatory information page, both checked on 2026-09-23; CFC's US arm, CFC USA Inc., separately holds admitted producer licenses and E&S authorization in NY, TX, GA and CA, but that page does not tie a specific license to the Technology product.

Amelia Risk says a company should generally consider Tech E&O once people are using its technology, whether in beta or full release. ⁴Company-reported. Dedicated Tech E&O page's purchase-timing guidance. A general trigger the firm states, not an underwriting eligibility rule.

Amelia Risk markets Tech E&O to its technology-industry clients, a specialty vertical it describes as covering software, hardware, robotics, AI, autonomous-vehicle software and life-sciences companies. ⁵Company-reported. Technology specialty page as read on 2026-09-16. Describes the firm's marketed audience, not a stated size or revenue threshold.

CFC says the Technology product is suitable for start-ups, mid-size and multinational tech companies, without publishing a specific revenue or headcount cutoff on the product page. ⁸Company-reported. Technology product page introduction; actual eligibility for a given applicant depends on underwriting review of the application.

Amelia Risk describes Tech E&O as a more specific term for professional liability: it protects a company if its product or service fails and causes a client or user a financial loss. ⁴Company-reported. Dedicated Tech E&O page copy. A general definition, not a specimen policy form or list of exclusions.

CFC describes coverage for financial loss, bodily injury or property damage arising from a technology company's products and services, plus legal liability for breach of client contracts and IP infringement claims such as copyright and trademark disputes. ⁹Company-reported. Product brochure feature descriptions; exclusions and conditions are set by the policy wording, which was not reviewed.

The cyber portion of the policy includes network and privacy liability, business interruption, data rectification and recreation costs, extortion cover, and social engineering coverage, sitting inside the same Technology package rather than as a separate purchase. ⁹Company-reported. Product brochure 'Comprehensive cyber cover' section.

Not described in the reviewed sources.

CFC publishes a maximum errors & omissions/media/cyber limit of $10,000,000 and a maximum commercial general liability limit of $6,000,000 for this product, with a minimum deductible of $0. ⁹Company-reported. Brochure 'Limits and deductibles' table; the limit and deductible on an individual policy's declarations control.

Not described in the reviewed sources.

Policyholders get access to CFC's incident response service at a $0 deductible, sitting on a limit separate from the main policy limit, plus a free app with dark web monitoring, phishing simulations and network deep scanning. ⁹Company-reported. Brochure 'Market leading cyber incident response' and 'Response app highlights' sections; CFC calls its incident response team one of the largest in-house teams in the industry, a characterization not independently verified here.

Amelia Risk applies its general four-step brokerage process to a Tech E&O request: it gathers information about the company, approaches insurers on the client's behalf, reviews the resulting quotes together, and lets the client decide how to proceed. ²Company-reported. Specialties page process description, which applies across the firm's lines rather than describing a Tech E&O-specific intake form.

The US Technology application asks for company revenue by year, funding-round history, subcontractor and hosting arrangements, and whether multi-factor authentication is enforced for remote network access and email; it is returned to your insurance broker. ^11,8Company-reported. Application form Sections 1, 2 and 4; CFC also lists Connect and named API partners as digital trading channels on the product page, which may bypass a paper application for some brokers.

Amelia Risk says it advocates for a client's needs during claims as part of its general brokerage process; the reviewed pages do not describe a Tech E&O-specific claims procedure or dedicated claims contact. ²Company-reported. Specialties page 'Our Process' section. A general brokerage claims-advocacy statement, not a line-specific claims service.
