What Are the Key Differences Between AIG and Coalition Tech E&O Insurance?

Named technology failure scenarios

AIG describes E&O for claims alleging errors or omissions in technology-service performance, including economic loss to third parties. Coalition lists more specific examples: software bugs, delivery delays, IP claims involving licensed code, IT implementation errors, and failure to meet contract requirements. Those examples help a buyer test its own customer commitments, but each insurer's policy language still controls whether a particular allegation is covered. [2] [5]

Cyber pairing and services

Coalition sells Tech E&O only together with its Active Cyber policy through appointed brokers, and includes Coalition Control monitoring at no extra cost. AIG markets Technology Services E&O but its reviewed description does not state a cyber bundle requirement or monitoring benefit. A buyer seeking standalone professional coverage should confirm whether AIG will quote it separately and compare the operational value of Coalition's bundled services. [5] [2]

What Should You Confirm in AIG and Coalition Tech E&O Insurance Quotes?

  • Ask Coalition how the combined cyber and E&O limits apply to licensed-code, outage, and delivery-delay claims. [5]
  • Ask AIG whether Tech E&O can be purchased without cyber and what monitoring or response services accompany it. [2]
