Noah Fenyes, Carl D’Amour Belizario, Charlie McDonald, and Elaine Tham, review how transactional insurance tools — particularly representation & warranty (R&W) insurance, tax risk insurance, and other bespoke risk products — can be used to allocate risk, enhance deal certainty, and facilitate negotiation dynamics in M&A transactions (both public and private).
Topics include:
- Product fundamentals, market evolution, and current policy enhancements.
- Policy structure, coverage scope, exclusions, underwriting focus, and pricing considerations.
- Interplay with indemnities and escrows.
- Practical guidance and key takeaways.
- Emerging bespoke products such as break fee/cancellation insurance and end-of-fund-life solutions.
