Key Differences in Fiduciary Liability Insurance

Investigations and covered claims

Corgi’s standard form does not treat Department of Labor investigations, IRS audits, or HHS inquiries as covered claims; it says only a resulting participant lawsuit qualifies, and investigation costs themselves are not covered. Zurich’s Fiduciary Liability Select addresses claims and investigations involving administration of employee savings, pension, and health or welfare plans. A plan sponsor facing regulatory scrutiny should ask Zurich for its investigation trigger and compare it with Corgi’s explicit limitation, then check defense-cost treatment in the proposed form. 6 10

Plan structure and purchase timing

Corgi offers fiduciary liability in Growth Stage and Custom startup packages, not its Pre-Seed & Seed or Series A tiers, and shows illustrative limits up to $1 million per claim and $2 million aggregate. Zurich says its fiduciary coverage is available standalone or packaged for public and private companies. Buyers should check Corgi’s stage-based availability and retention against their plan’s needs, while asking Zurich which structure and limit apply. 2 6 9

What to Confirm in Fiduciary Liability Insurance Quotes

  • Ask Corgi whether an investigation is covered before a participant files suit and confirm defense costs within its stated limits. 6
  • Ask Zurich what investigations qualify and whether standalone or packaged coverage fits your plan. 9
