Belmont Partners Hosts APS Webinar: De-Mystifying Directors and Officers Insurance

Today Belmont Partners, LLC announced the hosting of their March 27, 2008, Alternative Public Strategies webinar entitled, Directors and Officers Insurance De-Mystified. Do You Know What You Need to Know About D&O? As the aftermath of the Bear Stearns collapse illustrates, shareholder anger can be a potent force. Often, corporate indemnity insurance disappears once a corporation becomes insolvent or declares bankruptcy. Directors and Officers Insurance (D&O) may be a director's or an officer's last line of defense. The March 27th Alternative Public Strategies live, interactive D&O webinar will deliver practical information, tools, and guidelines for negotiating and placing D&O Insurance. This insurance protects and shields a company's directors and officers from loss. Those who seek D&O insurance protection need to know what this coverage provides and what it does not protect against. Joseph Meuse, Managing Director of Belmont Partners, stated, "With the credit crunch and market turmoil leading the national news, it is crucial to defuse the myth that D&O insurance is too complex to master and its cost too prohibitive. D&O insurance often plays a key role in whether a company will receive critical funding. Without appropriate D&O coverage, the consequences can be significant." An exceptional panel of insurance and legal experts will replace the myth with a reliable, working knowledge of the unique and subtle contractual distinctions of a D&O insurance policy. David L. Schaefer, a Principal of AH&T Insurance and an industry expert on Directors and Officers Insurance, will moderate the live discussions. Joining Mr. Schaefer as speakers and panelists will be Jason M. Wallace, Assistant Vice President of Navigators Pro; Manish Shah, a Director of Carpenter Moore, a NASDAQ Company; and Richard I. Anslow, a corporate and securities attorney and managing partner of the law firm Anslow & Jaclin.
