What is marketing agency insurance?

Marketing agency insurance is a combination of covers built around running campaigns for clients, professional indemnity for advice or execution that causes a client a financial loss, employersโ€™ liability if you have staff, and cyber cover for the customer data you handle.

Agencies often manage client ad spend and hold customer data for campaigns, both of which bring risks beyond the creative work itself.

The right marketing agency cover depends on:

Whether you manage client ad spend
Handling customer or campaign data
Number of employees
Level of professional indemnity cover
Annual turnover
Whether you visit client premises
