English translation:Directors and Officers Liability Insurance
Explanation:
I think the term you are looking for is the same as "VD & styrelseansvarsförsäkring"

Ref 1: "VD- / Styrelseansvarsförsäkring
D&O Liability Insurance"

Ref 2: Directors and Officers Liability Insurance provides financial protection for the directors and officers of your company in the event they are sued in conjunction with the performance of their duties as they relate to the company. Think of Directors and Officers Insurance as a management Errors and Omissions policy.
