In a fast growing and changing sector like sustainability and environmental consultancy, we work hard to make sure that our professional indemnity cover keeps up to date with the evolving risks that clients working in this sector face.

Key features

In addition to all the standard features of our Hiscox Professional Indemnity cover, our bespoke wording for sustainability and environmental cover includes:

  • Cover included for incentives and tariffs
    Specific cover if a claim is brought against you for failing to correctly assess, or submit a submission on time, for a special or incentivised tariff rate or government incentive, on behalf of your customer
  • Fraudulent certificates
    Specific cover if your client brings a claim against you for negligent advice in respect of an environmental certificate you have arranged for your client, if the certificate provider is found to be trading fraudulently 
  • Sustainable suppliers
    Cover for additional expenses to expedite changing your advertising, undertake additional checks, or sourcing a new provider in the event that one of your suppliers of  environmental certificates is trading fraudulently.
