CFC vs TechInsurance Professional Liability (E&O) Insurance

CFC sells professional errors & omissions as a modular package policy it calls "Professional services" (branded on the brochure as "Miscellaneous professional liability"), which pairs E&O with optional general liability, property and cyber add-ons rather than selling E&O alone. ^5,6Company-reported.

TechInsurance arranges errors and omissions (E&O) insurance, also called professional liability insurance, as a standalone policy for businesses that provide professional services or advice. ¹⁰Company-reported. Errors and omissions product page.
