摘要
D&O liability insurance has evolved from a policy designed to protect only individual directors and officers to a risk transfer mechanism used to protect a corporations balance sheet. The policy provisions implementing this evolution may dilute the coverage available to the individuals. Policy changes designed to mitigate against this dilution, however, may lead to unanticipated impairments of coverage for both individuals and the corporation.
