Trustees are responsible for administering and handling the assets in a trust. Because of the nature of this work, trustees face liability risks, which can lead to costly lawsuits. That’s where trustee errors and omissions insurance can help.

Trustees can set up and administer various types of trusts, with the most common being a Beneficiary Trust.

Trustees face a variety of liability risks because they’re handling a trust and assets. Trustees can get sued for negligence, mistakes in their handling of the trust or misrepresentation. Some common trustee errors and omissions exposures include:

Negligent selection of outside professionals where the person the trustee hired to help them administer the trust made a mistake. Outside professionals include attorneys, investment advisors and accountants.
Negligence for not hiring professionals to assist in the administration of a trust.
Mismanagement of trust assets or unwise investment decisions.
Lawsuits from beneficiaries who believe they didn’t get their fair or expected share of trust assets.
Conflict of interest when a trustee is also a beneficiary or acting in another professional capacity for the trust.

Employment practice liability insurance (EPLI) is specialized insurance designed to protect against loss incurred in litigating and settling wrongful employment practices liability claims. It provides protection against lawsuits such as discrimination, breach of contract, and wrongful discharge suits, which usually are not covered by general business liability insurance. It generally provides reimbursement for the costs incurred in defending a lawsuit but does not cover reimbursement for any punitive damages awarded.

EPLI is not meant to replace sound and secure employment practices. In fact, most insurance companies will not insure a company unless it has some basic employment practices in place. Employee handbooks, post-incident investigation practices, and arbitration or mediation policies are some of the major items that insurance companies expect an employer to have when applying for an ELI policy.
