April 10, 2017, CHICAGO, IL – LifeScienceRisk (LSR) announced today a proprietary Proposition 65 coverage for the Dietary Supplement industry. LSR is the first to deliver this specialty insurance product, offering tailored coverage by a separate insurance policy that can be bundled with LSR’s Core Liability coverages.
The standalone Proposition 65 (Prop 65) coverage includes six chemical elements that may be found in dietary supplement and herbal products. LSR provides a full-service platform for this inventive coverage, which includes client specific service, tailored coverage forms and collaborative risk assessment. Prop 65 coverage was developed in collaboration with Lloyd’s syndicates who represent AM Best Security of “A+XV” and is distributed through select retail and wholesale brokers who recognize their client’s risk in this evolving space.
