Over the years, there has been an increase in the number of associations and non-profit organisations created to meet a wide variety of community needs. However, despite their good intentions, many of these organisations and their officers have found themselves at risk of expensive litigation arising from the provision of services to their members or to the public.
In addition to the increased risk of litigation, exposure also extends to include increased litigation costs and more stringent corporate governance requirements to the point that prudent associations and non-profit organisations and their officers simply cannot take the risk of operating without the security of proper and tailored cover.
