Corporate transactions – insurance due diligence

We provide insurance due diligence services on target entities for acquiring companies.

Review of target company’s insurance program

We review and report on the scope and enforceability of a target company’s coverage under its existing insurance coverage and the impact of the proposed transaction:

  • D&O, E&O, public liability, property and industrial risks, product liability, trade credit, workers compensation
  • Coverage gaps and uncovered liabilities
  • Continuing coverage for historical liabilities
  • Depletion of insurance limits
  • Existing claims and insurer indemnification
  • Integration of target into group insurance program

We collaborate with the acquirer’s insurance broker to recommend solutions to facilitate the transaction.

Clients

We normally work with the acquirer’s corporate law firm to undertake the review of the insurance program.
