The new Sompo Life Science Plus offers coverage for various life science products. These include products used in human clinical trials, products loaned or rented to others, representations and warranties made with respect to a named insured’s product, limited coverage for bodily injury and property damage occurring on premises with respect to contract research and contract manufacturing services, and errors and omissions for financial loss, including failure to provide directions or instructions.
The product also provides a range of property coverages designed to meet the specific needs of life science companies, such as research animals, bio, and radioactive contamination and R&D business income.
A release said that Sompo’s product is targeted at small and middle market accounts, including biotechnology companies, clinical monitoring and site management firms, clinical trials, contract research organizations, laboratories, medical device companies, pharmaceutical companies, private label and contract manufacturers, research and development facilities and service organizations.
