Key Differences in Fiduciary Liability Insurance

Claims Versus Investigations

Corgi’s standard form covers ERISA fiduciary-duty lawsuits such as excessive fees and administration errors, but says DOL investigations, IRS audits, and HHS inquiries are not claims unless they lead to a participant lawsuit; investigation costs themselves are not covered. Counterpart’s page describes plan and ERISA exposures more generally. If audit response matters, ask for the exact trigger in Counterpart’s form. 6 9

Limits and Retentions

Corgi illustrates up to $1 million per claim and $2 million aggregate with a $25,000 retention and defense costs inside the limit. Counterpart also calls its limit examples illustrative. Compare actual limits and defense treatment, and remember Corgi excludes settlor acts, ESOPs, and multi-employer plans from its standard form. 6 9

What to Confirm in Fiduciary Liability Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Corgi whether any endorsement adds investigation costs or changes its settlor-act and plan exclusions. 6
  • Ask Counterpart for actual per-claim and aggregate limits, retention, and whether defense erodes the limit. 9
