Communications, Media & Technology Insurance

The pace of change in communications, media and technology is relentless, and with it comes an evolving risk profile for your clients. Intellectual property disputes, ransomware attacks, media liability, third-party litigation and system failure are no longer outliers; they’re business-critical exposures that demand responsive, structured solutions.

As a broker, you need a wholesale partner who understands your clients' business models and can help you access the capacity and specialist coverage these industries require - especially when domestic markets fall short. 

At Price Forbes, we support brokers globally in placing tailored insurance solutions for CMT clients through the London and Bermuda markets. We don’t compete with you - we collaborate to extend your capabilities and help you protect your client relationships.

Communications, Media & Technology Insurance

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Cyber insurance covers distinct exposures such as ransomware, data breach response, and network interruption - risks not typically covered by PI or E&O. We help structure coordinated programmes that work together.

Yes. IP cover helps defend and enforce rights involving trademarks, patents and copyrights. It’s particularly useful for content-driven, licensing-heavy, or innovation-led businesses.

Contingent Business Interruption coverage can address income loss caused by outages or interruptions at key suppliers or platforms. Understanding dependencies is key - we help map and model that risk.

Media liability deals with content (defamation, copyright infringement, publication risk), while tech E&O covers financial loss due to failure of a digital product or service. For many clients, both apply.

Absolutely. We provide support across the growth curve, from early stage to IPO, helping brokers anticipate needs at each inflection point, from D&O to cyber to transactional liability.
