The Ins and Outs of E&O Insurance with Matt Woodford and Angela Schroder

Welcome back to the Retirement Inside Out podcast! Today we are joined by two very special guests, president of Independent Property & Casualty Group, Matt Woodford, and president of U.S. E & O Brokers, Angela Schroder. They are sitting down with us to talk about all things Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance- from making sure you have the right coverage to how often you should review your coverage. As your business grows and carriers and policies change over time, this is a critical step that you do not want to miss. 

Join us as Matt and Angela take a deep dive into the misconceptions and risks associated with inadequate insurance, emphasizing the need for comprehensive evaluation, and understanding of policies. With real-life examples and practical insights, they highlight the significance of E&O coverage and the importance of understanding policy exclusions, claims triggers, and more.
