Dun & Bradstreet Corp., which faces six class actions over its marketing of a credit monitoring service, has been named in a suit by an insurer seeking to be absolved of the duty to defend or indemnify the company.

Sentry Insurance Co. claims in the suit that it owes no duty to provide coverage in the six cases because they argue that D&B intentionally published false information in order to induce class members to purchase the company’s CreditBuilder service. Such conduct is excluded from coverage under an intentional act exclusion in the company’s policy, according to the suit, which was filed March 18 in federal court in Newark.
