CPAA Member Insurance Scheme

Members of the CPAA can enrol on the CPAA Members Insurance Scheme for an additional cost. Members or applicants interested in enrolling on the Scheme should email the admin@cpaa.co.uk to discuss cost.  

The CPAA Members Insurance Scheme cover is provided to members as an additional charge in addition to their membership subscription. In providing this scheme neither the CPAA or Howden UK Brokers Ltd is making a personal recommendation in relation to the suitability in relation to your own circumstances or requirements.

This cover is suitable for accountants that have a potential liability for: the professional advice that they give; injury to others (including employees), and that also wish to protect their office contents against loss or damage.

Cover is subject to the following conditions being met:

1. Practice turnover of less than £300,000 (excluding VAT). For turnover limits above this please contact the CPAA.
2. Maximum fee from any one client £50,000
3. In the absence of a Proposal Form, cover is subject to members being able to confirm their compliance with a Statement of Fact and this being accepted by Howden UK Brokers Ltd whose details appear below.
4. All insurances are dependent on a current Direct Debit mandate for subscriptions being active.

 

If you already have insurance in place covering the above, or if you fall outside the above criteria, please contact us at: admin@cpaa.co.uk.
