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

Required Cyber Bundle vs Standalone E&O and a Fintech Form

Coalition sells Tech E&O only together with Active Cyber Insurance, through appointed brokers. Relm sells Technology Errors and Omissions as professional liability on its own, through brokers, and says Tech E&O and cyber overlap but one doesn't replace the other. Relm also says standard Tech E&O isn't always enough for fintech companies and offers a separate Fintech Errors and Omissions product covering blockchain-related vulnerabilities and regulatory scrutiny; Coalition doesn't describe a fintech form. Choose Coalition if you want cyber and E&O together from one insurer; choose Relm if you already have cyber or you're a fintech or blockchain company. [4] [9]

Software Bugs and Licensed-Code IP vs Advice and Disclosure Failures

Coalition lists software bugs, delivery delays, IP claims over licensed code, IT implementation errors and failure to meet contract requirements. Relm lists poor service delivery or contract failures, system failures or software glitches that hurt customers' operations, and negligent advice, misrepresentation or failure to disclose product limitations, typically covering defense, settlements and judgments. If you license code from others, Coalition names that IP risk; if you advise clients, Relm names that risk. [4] [9]

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

  • If you're a fintech, ask Relm whether you're quoted standard Tech E&O or Fintech E&O. [9]
  • Check that Coalition's quote includes Active Cyber Insurance, since E&O isn't sold without it. [4]
  • Ask both which insurer issues the Tech E&O policy. [5] [9]
  • Ask Relm how its E&O and your cyber policy fit together so you don't leave a gap or pay twice. [9] [4]
