Financial Services
Risk management is the bread and butter of asset managers, investment funds, family offices, merchant banks, and fintech companies. Liability risks, however, are never far away, and the last thing any director wants is for those risks to reach their personal assets. Directors and Officers (D&O) liability insurance is not a legal requirement, but the financial consequences of a director's error can be significant, and these situations are often impossible to predict.
Meijers speaks the language of the investment professional. While clients stay focused on generating responsible returns, our job is to identify and address the liability risks, so they can get on with what they do best: IPOs, mergers and acquisitions, and fund management. Protecting personal assets through D&O insurance is at the heart of what we do. Think of us as an experienced partner who combines risk management expertise with a deep understanding of the financial sector.

Marcel Besemer, Senior Account Specialist
Investment funds and participation companies hold an increasingly central place in the business world, and it is a sector I find genuinely compelling. The combination of bold entrepreneurship and high-stakes capital allocation makes it one of the most dynamic industries to work in.
It is also one of the most exposed. With large numbers of external lenders in the mix, the margin for error is narrow. Insufficient returns, insolvency, investor claims, incorrect advice, or a misstep on regulatory compliance: any of these can trigger personal liability for directors and officers.
To give clients the sharpest possible advice, I track economic developments daily, stay close to the numbers, and work to surface risks before they become claims. I do this in close consultation with insurers. The goal is always the same: the right liability insurance coverage for an investment firm and its directors, officers, and employees, at the best price.
Roberto Ramdin, Manager Liability
Meijers stays ahead of emerging developments, which is how we got to grips with the SPAC phenomenon early on. Our deep experience in D&O insurance meant we could move quickly, and we were among the first brokers in the Netherlands to insure a number of SPACs. As the market evolves, the reputation of directors and supervisory board members carries more weight than ever. Investors put their trust in these individuals, and that trust is where long-term success is built.
We find real satisfaction in working through the most complicated risks and landing on the right insurance solution. Building on that expertise, we monitor the evolving rules around SPAC coverage and translate them into specialist, tailored solutions for clients in the Netherlands and internationally.
