D&O insurance is the common name for Director and Officers insurance coverage. This type of insurance coverage helps to cover settlements, legal expenses and any wrong allegations against a nonprofit organization. It protects directors and Officers of nonprofits against any violation of duty. According to Randon Morris, it will be wrong to believe that D&O insurance coverage is only for big nonprofit organizations. The reason is that directors and officers of nonprofit organizations have the possibility of being exposed to personal liability irrespective of the organization's size or type.
In most cases, directors and officers of nonprofit organizations don't have enough experience and at times they don't have a vast knowledge of their responsibilities and duties regarding the organization they serve. Directors and officers of nonprofit organizations need to know that the Federal Volunteer Protection Act doesn't cover all their actions. This means there is a need for nonprofits to protect their directors and officers with D&O insurance no matter their size or type, says Randon Morris.
