The team behind the scheme
We have a dedicated team, based in Bristol, who are focused on delivering excellent customer service for ICAEW members; from low fee-earning practices to niche and mid-tier firms.
Our team draws on a wide range of expertise and experience to deliver our value proposition and provide support to members. This includes:
- dedicated client advisers providing members with exceptional service, and regional relationship managers offering in-person support
- specialist claims advisers who are on hand to guide members through the claims process
- regular communication to members including news and updates on relevant topics – helping to support them in navigating the increasingly complex risk landscape.
Policy enhancements under the ICAEW scheme
As well as meeting the minimum requirements set out by the ICAEW, the scheme also provides enhanced benefits designed specifically for members, including:
- a six year run-off period available in a block policy
- cost of court attendance compensation limit is increased for the principal partner, member
or director - cover for replacing, restoring or reconstituting physical documents
- circumstances known prior to the inception of the policy period that have not previously reported, are not automatically excluded
- cover for appointments as a director of a third party company – cover provided is only in relation to services defined by the insurer
- insurer security termination clause, allowing you to terminate the cover if the insurer’s security rating is reduced
- joint ventures – limited to acts of the insured only and excludes claims for work carried out by other parties/employees of the joint venture.
Members also benefit from packaged cover that includes PI, office, and cyber insurance, helping to eliminate gaps and overlaps in cover.
