After considerable experience as a CEO managing various companies, Bill Pollock, Chairman and Founder of NIP, began a consulting practice in 2002 dedicated to create a special plan designed to help management and directors of corporations better address the difficult issues of conflict and risk. Directors today are facing unprecedented risk and potential liability and need help to address these issues in order to effectively provide the leadership required of them to help protect and enhance shareholder value.

In 2005 Bill Pollock founded NIP dedicated to providing personal attention to companies, boards of directors and executives seeking advice regarding how to best manage their risk. In many instances, the same risk may be perceived differently by two different people resulting in different needs. Managing risk is not a one size fits all situation. Pollock realized that directors, corporate America’s visionaries and strategists, were generally not being represented in the procurement process of D&O insurance and, consequently, generally not adequately protected and were being subjected to an unacceptable level of risk; i.e. Enron, WorldCom and Just for Feet.

What sets us apart from the other consulting firms is our expertise in the director protection arena. Assisting directors in developing a greater understanding of the business through a number of different lenses, helping fulfill their roles and responsibilities and helping to protect their personal assets is what we do best.
NIP performs all services as an independent and neutral resource for directors in their efforts to create and protect shareholder value.
