In brief, the Excess Layer Liability Insurance Policy covers:

Excess Layer Liability Insurance enables you to obtain higher limits of indemnity for your Liability Insurance covers over and above that provided by your existing Insurer. Alternatively, it may be a cost effective way of obtaining higher limits of indemnity without using the full capacity of the existing Insurer.

This arrangement can be used for Public/ Products Liability, Employers Liability and/or Professional Indemnity covers

An example of how the cover operates is as follows:

A contractor holds a Public Liability Policy with a Limit of Indemnity of £5,000,000 which had previously been adequate to meet all contractual obligations and risks on which he had been working.  He secures a Local authority contract which requires him to have a Limit of Indemnity of £10,000,000. The existing Insurer is unable to provide any more cover than it already does so our client purchases an Excess layer cover of £5,000,000 over the Primary cover of £5,000,000.

In the event of a claim the Primary Insurer pays all claims up to £5,000,000 and the Excess Layer Insurer pay all claims over that amount.
