Dear Member
The research we have undertaken over the past year has indicated
that you, as members, would like to leverage your membership for
tangible benefits, both personal and corporate. You have also
indicated that you do not welcome direct mailings from affinity
partners. With this brochure, that practice comes to an end.
We are delighted to bring you the first Member Benefits booklet,
with a wide range of lifestyle and corporate opportunities. These are
also accessible on www.icai.ie, so if you mislay this booklet, don’t
worry, the information is available online. We will continue to
negotiate new benefits for you on an on-going basis. We would also
like to hear from you if you would like to propose offers from your
own company or your favourite service provider. Just email
[email protected].

The complete solution for Directors, Senior Management
and Partners for the risk exposures arising from ever more
demanding legislation, Regulation and Employment Law
Corporate Offer
Whether you are in practice or business,
accountants, partners, directors and
employees face increasing exposure to
potential damaging legal actions.
Standard insurance covers may no longer
be sufficient to protect you and your
company against new and changing laws.
That’s why Arachas Management Liability
Portfolio offers 3 separate limits for
Directors & Officers Liability, Employment
Practices Liability and Corporate Legal
Liability giving broader cover including
protection against:
• Defence costs of regulatory actions,
including actions brought by the Office
of the Director of Corporate
Enforcement made against any
individual or your company
• Defence costs and awards of claims
arising from allegations by employees
including wrongful dismissal,
harassment, discrimination, breach of
contract and even failure to employ
• Defence costs and awards of third
party claims including claims from
shareholders, investors, creditors and
customers
6
You are no doubt aware as a director or
partner, you have an unlimited personal
liability and beyond this the costs of
defending a claim brought against you
or your company, even if successful, can
be substantial. Are you willing to take
the risk?
Arachas have joined with ICAI to offer an
exclusive product to ICAI members for
this protection.
