Skills and experience that will lead to success

Unlike most insurance programs, the primary purpose of Clinical Trial Liability insurance is to support Pharma and Biotech companies through regulatory approvals and contractual compliance while simultaneously protecting these trial sponsors and their research partners from financial liability in case of injury or harm.

Clinical trials are essential for the approval of new drugs and medical devices, as they provide the data needed to assess safety and efficacy in humans, a requirement for regulatory approval by agencies like the FDA. To generate this volume of data, clinical trials must take place in many countries who closely regulate the activity including the clinical trial liability insurance. Our team of specialized brokers, through global and local insurance partners, provides the necessary local insurance ensuring no trial is ever delayed due to insurance reasons thus supporting our clients in their mission of saving and improving lives.
