Argo Pro, a member of Argo Group International Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ:AGII), an international underwriter of specialty insurance and reinsurance products, today announced that the company has expanded its line of management liability insurance products with a new commercial crime insurance product offering.

Argo Pro’s Crime and Fidelity insurance coverage helps to protect medium-sized companies—up to $15 million in capacity—against loss of money, securities or inventory resulting from crime. Features of this specialty insurance coverage, which is available in most states in the U.S., includes protection against losses due to employee dishonesty; forgery or alteration; theft, robbery and burglary (inside the premises); theft and robbery (outside the premises); computer fraud; electronic funds transfer (EFT) fraud; and counterfeit currency and money orders.

“With fraud and embezzlement in the workplace on the rise, even the best work environments are vulnerable to crimes committed by employees,” said Laurie Banez, senior vice president, chief underwriting officer, Argo Pro. “In responding to such increased exposure, companies would be best served by proactively managing their commercial crime risks with a comprehensive crime insurance product that can protect their assets against potentially significant losses.”
