Bookkeepers are in a unique position of trust – the service you provide comes with an expectation of a high level of professionalism and specialist knowledge, so if something goes wrong you could be held liable. That’s why a Professional Liability package can provide essential financial protection in the event of a claim being made against your business.

There is also the option of separately purchasing Employers Liability, Material Damage and Business Interruption insurance as extra cover for your bookkeeping business, to help protect against the other risk of unexpected events that may impact the day to day operations of business.

What it covers

The discounted package includes cover for Professional Indemnity, Public Liability, Statutory Liability.

Professional Indemnity

Professional Indemnity insurance** protects you against losses claimed by a third party due to alleged or actual negligence in your professional services or advice.  Your Professional Indemnity insurance will meet the associated compensation payable to a third party together with your defence costs (which can include legal costs, investigator costs and expert fees).

Public Liability 

Public Liability insurance** is designed to provide protection for a business in the event a customer, supplier or a member of the public are injured (when not covered by the ACC) or sustain property damage as a result of the insured’s negligent business activities.

Statutory Liability          

Statutory Liability insurance protects you, your business and your employees against certain inadvertent breaches of some New Zealand laws (not criminal laws though). It will also cover the costs of representation related to investigation costs for alleged breaches, as well as defence costs, and fines or penalties payable following a conviction.

When you do the math, there is always a chance for a potential error to occur when it comes to doing the checks and balances. Don’t leave it up to chance! Make a calculated decision to let BizCover look after your Bookkeeping business.
