Representations and warranties insurance (RWI) offers protection for unknown breaches of target and seller representations and warranties in a purchase agreement.
Tax liability insurance offers protection against known tax risks or an uncertain tax position that is challenged by a tax authority and is not otherwise covered by an RWI policy.
Contingent liability insurance offers protection for a broad range of known contingent risks for which neither party to the transaction will accept financial responsibility (litigation, regulatory approvals, etc.).

We are ready to work with you throughout your M&A journey and help you make your transaction a success.
