The Need for Manufacturers E & O Insurance

When I bring up the subject of manufacturers E & O insurance, I am often met with the same response: isn't E & O insurance for technology companies?  While it's true that technology companies are the usual suspects for E & O insurance, many non-technology manufacturers have a significant exposure to E & O risk.  But many insurance buyers suffer from what I call "Paper Blanket" syndrome,where they take comfort from their general/products liability coverage and assume that it will cover them for everything.

Read my white paper on manufacturers E & O to get a better understanding of why it's needed, and how it can affect you if you don't have it.
