Directors and officers (“D&Os”) of corporations face constantly increasing and evolving liability. D&Os have exposures under state law for breach of fiduciary duty in the context of mismanagement claims, while D&Os of public companies may also face liability for violations of the federal securities laws.

The risks for directors and officers are ever increasing in the changing landscape for both the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors. This involved changes with type of securities class actions filed against D&Os in the past year, but also the derivative actions, with more of them involving Delaware corporate law. There continues to be emerging trends impacting corporate decision making, none more potentially game changing than the increased implementation of artificial intelligence into the work environment. In response, D&O and corporate liability insurance products continue to evolve to address these new and renewed exposures.
