Insurance

The Insurance Team arranges cover for the University's property, travel, motor vehicles and legal liabilities such as employers' liability and professional indemnity. Certain specific 'ad-hoc' covers are also arranged.

Much of the University's insurance cover is arranged through Oxford Mutual Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the University.

Insurance matters connected with the University's research portfolio, including clinical trials and consultancies, are handled by Research Support.
