Is Venture Capital Asset Protection Insurance right for you?

  • Venture capital and private equity firms

    VCAP is a specialty package for fund managers that may combine fund-level management and professional liability in one program.

  • General partners sitting on portfolio boards

    Your outside-directorship protection needs checking separately from the D&O the portfolio company buys.

  • Emerging managers closing a first fund

    Limited partners may ask who is insured and what the program includes, and the answer depends on how it’s structured.

  • Managers with an employee team

    Employment claims at your management company differ from fund-governance claims, so check that the package addresses both.

When to get Venture Capital Asset Protection Insurance

  • 01

    You’re closing a new fund

    Confirm the quote schedules the new fund and its management company rather than assuming they’re included.

    Check the policy’s notice terms and tell your Spot team, so you can report it on those terms and your claim history stays accurate.

    Your VCAP policy is up for renewal

Venture Capital Asset Protection Insurance questions

Also known as VCAP insurance, venture capital fund insurance, VC fund insurance and VC firm insurance.

Do we need a specialist fund broker, or can we keep ours?

Keep yours if they place VCAP well. Spot works with your broker on the fund submission and takes no commissions on premiums. If they rarely see fund managers, we can help you move to a broker who does.

What is VCAP insurance?

It’s a specialty package for venture capital and private equity firms and the funds they manage, which may combine fund-level management and professional liability. Contents vary, so Spot lists each component in every quote.

Is it the same as general liability?

No. Injury at your premises or property damage is separate from investor, governance and professional-service claims about fund management.

Are limited partner claims covered?

Ask how the policy treats claims about fund management, disclosures or governance. Don’t assume it pays for investment performance losses.

Are portfolio companies insured?

Don’t assume it. Confirm which funds, management companies, partners and services the quote schedules.
