Business insurance

Insurance for Tax Accountants

For a tax and accounting practice, professional indemnity is the cover that matters most. It protects you if a client suffers a loss from an error in your advice, a return or a missed lodgement — the core risk of selling your judgement. Add cyber cover, because you hold sensitive financial and tax-file data, public liability for clients visiting the office, contents cover for your equipment, and workers' compensation for staff. With many policies renewing around 30 June, review your cover before the new financial year.

Common questions

Tax Accountants — insurance questions

Why is professional indemnity so important for accountants?

Because your work — advice, returns and lodgements — carries real financial consequences for clients. If an error causes a loss, professional indemnity responds to the claim and defence costs, which is why it is the central cover for this profession.

Do I need cyber cover as well?

It is increasingly important. You hold sensitive tax-file numbers and financial records, so a data breach is a genuine risk. Cockatoo helps match you to a broker who can package professional indemnity and cyber cover together.
