With Chubb’s Premier Life Science, you can protect your operations with broad, global insurance that can be customised to meet the needs of your business.
Chubb's Cyber team is dedicated to helping you prevent and prepare for incidents, ensuring you are well-equipped to navigate complex regulatory and legal challenges that can arise from a data privacy breach.
We offer WORLDcert™, a state-of-the-art, interactive clinical trial insurance and certificate risk management system, and WORLDview®, which gives you real-time access to admitted policies.
We work to understand your business and where you’re heading so we can be proactive about meeting your insurance needs. We invest in getting to know you, your team and your customers. The goal: to help you see ahead, be ahead and stay ahead.
Insurance isn’t one-size-fits-all – and neither is our approach. Our playbook is constantly evolving because we’re always helping our clients avoid and mitigate risk in smarter ways. That means we bring the latest thinking and a fresh perspective to solving your challenges.
We’ve served clients and partnered with leading organisations around the world for more than 200 years. Our longevity, expertise and financial strength are the bedrock of our business.
These are companies that develop products to prevent, diagnose, treat or cure disease in humans or animals, and the service organisations that facilitate these activities. Life sciences products are defined as medical devices and pharmaceuticals, as well as laboratory equipment that’s used in the development of life sciences products.
If they are manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), nutraceuticals are included in our appetite, i.e. products taken by mouth that contain a ‘dietary ingredient’ intended to supplement the diet, herbals and botanicals, vitamins and/or medical food. However, we do not actively pursue animal health products designed to increase production or weight (including dietary supplements for animals).
This is protection for interruption to money spent on creative work undertaken on a systematic basis – to increase the stock of knowledge and use this knowledge to devise new applications – following material damage to property insured. Our policy can provide cover for money spent on the research and development of new products and projects, as well as R&D income and costs that a business is committed to pay.
The insured may be contractually liable for financial injury to third parties due to a defect, error or omission in their product or service; cover for this is provided under our professional indemnity section. There is clarity of cover under our policy, as products liability covers bodily injury and property damage for both products and services, and professional indemnity covers financial injury to the insured’s clients – again, arising out of services as well as products.
Products liability insurance only applies for approved products; whereas clinical trials insurance provides not only legal liability, but also no-fault compensation to all participants involved in clinical trials to ensure they are protected in line with local regulations. In many countries, it is a legal requirement to cover trials locally where they are conducted, and our global reach means research subjects can be adequately protected and compensated in the territories you select for your trial sites.
