Since 1994, CPAGold — a program administered by Amwins Underwriting — has offered a focused professional liability solution for Certified Public Accountants. This program is designed for agents placing E&O and related professional liability exposures for accounting firms seeking broad, flexible coverage and underwriting expertise from a specialized managing general agency. Overview of the Program from Amwins Underwriting CPAGold targets accounting firms that need tailored professional liability protection, including traditional errors & omissions coverage plus defense for disciplinary matters and privacy/cyber extensions. Amwins Underwriting underwrites the program with an emphasis on practical coverage, supplemental endorsements, and options that reflect common CPA exposures. Ideal Accounts and Appetite Small to mid-sized CPA firms (1–50 professionals) with a balanced mix of tax, audit, compilation, and advisory work. Firms with more than 50 CPAs can be considered on a case-by-case basis. Best suited to firms with standard practice areas rather than highly specialized or unusually risky niches—ask underwriting for borderline or specialty practices. Example fits: You might have a 12-person firm that performs tax, bookkeeping and small business consulting seeking a combined E&O and disciplinary defense package; or a 30-person regional firm looking to add privacy and network security coverage to their professional liability limits. Coverage Highlights and Advantages Errors & omissions (professional liability) tailored for accounting practices Defense expenses for disciplinary proceedings and regulatory investigations Subpoena expense coverage and expense reimbursement Claim mitigation assistance Privacy-covered acts and network security coverage to address data breach and cyber exposures Policy enhancements and special endorsements available to broaden protection where needed Limits available from $100,000/$200,000 up to $5,000,000/$5,000,000 Underwriting Notes As a Managing General Agency program, CPAGold emphasizes a streamlined underwriting process with experienced UW personnel who understand CPA exposures. Typical submission items include a completed application, current and prior acts information, claims history, and descriptions of risk management or cybersecurity controls where applicable. Underwriting will review practice mix, revenue distribution by service line, any open disciplinary matters, and prior claim experience. Firms with complex specialty practices or significant claim histories should be discussed with underwriting before submission. Territories and Admitted Status Available in the following territories: AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, DC, WV, WI, WY.
