This facility was developed in association with the DIA and has been carefully designed to provide appropriate coverage for Design Professionals. From Graphic designers to Industrial designers and anywhere in between, Marsh can provide a PI & PL Policy that offers peace of mind and competitive premiums.

Marsh have also recognised the need for a streamlined application process and have designed a Professional Indemnity Proposal specifically pertaining to the design industry, and, at only 2.5 pages in length, you will appreciate the time saved in completing your application!

Another highlight of the Marsh DIA PI & PL Insurance Facility is the acknowledgement of the DIAs Continuing Professional Development Program. Accredited Designer status is recognised by the Underwriter as reducing a Designers risk and as a result provides premium reductions.

If you feel we may be able to assist you with Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance, call your dedicated service team leader, Rachel Grima, or send the attached form and we will contact you to arrange a quotation at your convenience.
