Church Trustee Indemnity covers the management risks incurred by churches and their trustees. Cover for: damages and expenses arising from any 'wrongful act'; dishonesty losses not recoverable from the trustee and loss of documents. Wrongful acts include actual or alleged acts and the policy is designed to pay for and defend these actions.
