A fraud insurance covers financial losses due to deliberate fraud, such as embezzlement by employees or phishing where payments are intercepted.
Fraud is more common than many business owners realise. An employee embezzles company funds. A supplier manipulates invoices. An external party intercepts payments through phishing. The financial impact can be significant, in addition to reputational damage and a loss of internal trust.
Fraud insurance protects your business against financial losses resulting from both internal and external fraud. Van Dessel Insurance Brokers helps you identify your vulnerabilities and develop a solution tailored to your organisation and risk profile.
Fraud insurance protects your business against financial losses resulting from intentional fraudulent acts.
This may include:
Where fraud is proven, the insurer compensates the financial loss in accordance with the policy terms and conditions, helping to prevent a single incident from having a major impact on your business.
Fraud insurance is also commonly referred to as crime insurance and forms an important part of a broader corporate risk management strategy.
Fraud insurance not only protects your financial assets, but also helps safeguard the stability of your business.
Covers financial losses resulting from internal fraud or embezzlement.
Covers financial losses caused by external fraud, including phishing and payment manipulation.
Covers investigation costs incurred to establish and prove fraud.
Fraud insurance is particularly relevant for businesses that:
The stronger your internal controls and the more people involved in authorising payments, the lower the risk of internal fraud. For this reason, insurers place great importance on the four-eyes principle, where payments require approval from at least two authorised individuals.
Small and medium-sized enterprises are equally vulnerable. A single fraud incident can be enough to have a significant impact on your annual profits.
The premium for fraud insurance is determined by several factors, including:
Insurers assess factors such as segregation of duties, approval procedures and internal controls. A strong internal governance framework can result in more favourable policy terms and premiums.
