Insurance Brokers Inc., http://www.programbusiness.com/tracking/sftracker.asp?SFid=192 , a specialist in professional liability, has tailored a new, comprehensive program for mortgage bankers and mortgage brokers that includes errors & omissions and financial institution bond coverages.

Fraudulent document coverage for any loss suffered by the mortgage banker as a result of false information provided by a mortgage applicant. Computer fraud coverage. Claims expense coverage that pays the cost of a professional audit by a CPA if the audit determines that a loss actually occurred. Trading coverage.
