Creating Deal Value in 2022 - Insuring risks identified in M&A due diligence

In this video Marsh’s Stefan Farahani highlights why a bespoke insurance solution for an identified risk can be more capital efficient and cost effective than traditional solutions.

In the context of M&A, uncovering risks as part of the due diligence process is one thing, but deciding who should bear the risk is quite another.

Identified risks, such as intellectual property, tax, and litigation, can give rise to difficult risk allocation questions. Although they are often fairly low probability events, they have the potential for high severity for both parties in a transaction.

In this video, part of our Creating Deal Value in 2022 series, Marsh’s Stefan Farahani, Head of Specific Risks, UK Private Equity and M&A Practice, highlights why a bespoke insurance solution for an identified risk can be more capital efficient and cost effective than traditional solutions.
