Industry Challenges
The media industry faces increasing legal, operational, and reputational risks. Without the right insurance, businesses may encounter:
Legal Claims for Defamation or Copyright Infringement
Published content that is disputed may lead to costly lawsuits. Media liability insurance helps protect your team and your brand from such claims.
Cyber Incidents and Data Loss
Online platforms and production companies are common targets for cybercrime. A breach can lead to service outages, content loss, and client dissatisfaction.
Equipment Damage or Downtime
If a production is delayed due to stolen or damaged equipment, it can cost thousands in lost time and missed delivery deadlines.
Contractual Risk with Advertisers and Distributors
Partnerships often require proof of insurance for liability or indemnity protection. Lack of valid cover can delay or cancel deals.
Staff Disputes or Employment Claims
