How Protective is D&O Insurance in Securities Class Actions?, by Michael Klausner, Stanford Law School, and Jason Hegland was recently posted on SSRN. Here is the abstract:
This article provides basic descriptive statistics on actual payments by D&O insurers for amounts paid in settling securities class actions.
