Strengthening Name, Image and Likeness compliance and protection across your athletic ecosystem

In today's ultra-competitive world of college athletics, protecting a university's athletic department, athletes and collective from financial loss due to injuries is paramount.

Gallagher's holistic approach to mitigating this risk allows for customizable solutions and appropriate protection in this high-stakes environment. The protections we help you place serve as long-term safeguards for athletes and reinforce your institution's commitment to student-athlete welfare and program sustainability.

Why Gallagher's NIL Risk and Revenue Protection program?

The benefits of Gallagher's Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) risk and revenue protection strategies include:

Financial preservation

Our innovative insurance solution delivers financial relief to institutions if a high-value athlete suffers a qualifying disability — providing a safety net in the event of a player's temporary total disability or potentially career-ending injury or illness. The insurance payout can cover the financial commitments made, helping ensure your college or collective's financial stability.

Contractual obligation fulfillment

Implementing our solutions helps your organization fulfill its commitments — strengthening credibility and trust with players, families, agents, institutions and the community — while enhancing a college's ability to attract and retain top talent.
