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

One Combined Policy vs Separate E&O and a Fintech Form

Gallagher is a broker that places tech E&O as one policy combining professional E&O with cyber liability for perils such as data breaches, ransomware and privacy violations. Its technology practice reports more than 7,500 tech and telecom clients overall. Relm sells Technology E&O as professional liability separate from cyber, covering poor service delivery, contract failure, software glitches that hurt customers and negligent advice, and says the two overlap but one doesn't cover the other's exposures. Relm also offers a separate Fintech E&O product for blockchain-related vulnerabilities and heightened regulatory scrutiny, which Gallagher doesn't describe. Neither names insurers or publishes limits. Choose Gallagher if you want E&O and cyber handled together by a large broker; choose Relm if you're a fintech or blockchain company or already have cyber.
