In New Zealand, public liability insurance refers to a specialized commercial and professional indemnity policy that protects businesses and contractors against legal liability for accidental third-party property damage or bodily injury arising directly from business operations. Because New Zealand's universal Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) scheme bars personal injury tort lawsuits, public liability insurance in New Zealand focuses primarily on covering third-party property damage, legal defense fees, and court-awarded compensation settlements.
